REVIEW: THE OG ACTION FIGURE - THE WOODEN MANNEQUIN!

This week, we’re having a look at the origina action figure, the one that (probably) started it all, the wooden freaking mannequin!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

THE OG ACTION FIGURE - THE WOODEN MANNEQUIN!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re having a look at the origina action figure, the one that (probably) started it all, the wooden freaking mannequin! According to wikipedia, the first mannequins (life size ones, 1:1) date all the way back to 1350 BC. There is no exact time for when the first 1:6 versions started to be used (some say 1850, others say before), so it is safe to say that those mannequins were the first original action figures, complete with articulations and all!

I found this one in IKEA (the land of the Detolf), where the store actually had a few of those displayed inside our coveted glass cabinets… THEY’RE ONTO US, GUYS!

IKEA’s “Gestalta”, with a very sober tube packaging.

The Wooden Mannequin has decent articulations, with ball joints pretty much every where. Today’s reviewers would crap on it due to the lack of double elbows, double knees, thigh swivels, ankle pivot,…

“Without me, there would no G.I. Joe, no TMNT, no action figures”

A TRUE INSPIRATION FOR ALL OUR FAVORITE BRANDS

The questionnable likeness, which inspired Bandai and SH Figuarts as they are still using it to this day

The very visible ball joints, that McFarlane Toys still loves to use

*Those* knee articulations, that NECA offered us quite recently with the ‘90 April figure

The beloved “ab crunch” that collectors seem to be very fond of, since removing it from the Kickstarter Spawn made everybody very sad and angry. (Pictured on Jazware’s Jungle Boy figure)

The Wooden Mannequin even comes with a stand, just like the Hot Toys figures! That’s how you know it’s premium: It has a stand.

The stand looks like one of those amazing flight stands that would make @796studios jealous! #crease

“WAIT A MINUTE… WHAT KIND OF CONTENT IS THAT? WHAT IS THAT CRAP?”

“SERIOUSLY, THIS IS FREAKING LAZY, WHAT THE…”

More news at 11:00… because the OG action figure said so!

BREAKING NEWS:

TOY FAIR 2020 TO FOCUS ONLY ON WOODEN TOYS ?!

The New York Toy Fair is just a few days away! Opening at the Jacob K. Javits Center in New York City, February 22nd to 25th, the Toy Fair is where all the great toys coming out throughout the year are first displayed and announced, and it is always an exciting time for all toy collectors worldwide.

But this year, the Toy Association has decided to make it even more special!

There will be no Hasbro, no Mattel, no Bandai, no NECA, no Hot Toys or Sideshow Collectibles, no Medicom, no Funko, no McFarlane Toys, no DC Collectibles, no Hot Wheels, etc...

This year, it will be ALL ABOUT WOODEN TOYS!

Brands like Janod, Maple Landmark, Brio, Hebe, Djeco, Ikea, Holtztiger, Green Tones, Grimm's Wooden Toys and many more will finally get their moment to shine!

"We have decided to do something special this year, and move on from exciting action figures, amazing detailed toys and great playability to have a Toy Fair that would be 100% focus on wooden toys." said a representative from the Toy Association. "We feel like this is what the collectors really want. We're expecting to break the record of attendance this year, with such a bold move.".
