Inspiring Agility: An Action Figure Giveaway

It’s not a doll, it’s an action figure.

Big difference between the two. Dolls are carried around and snuggled with. Swaddled. They pretty much lead a pampered and boring dusty life.

Not action figures, such as Manhattan Toy’s Boysterous Action Figure.

(Note: “Matthew” is really a snowboarder . . . but the boys were sharing the action figure sports equipment.)

“Matthew’s” skateboard is magnetic.

Here is “Charlie.”

However, “Charlie” received new gear. Because . . . well . . . we kind of encourage our boys to be dangerous. (Thanks to this book.)

So we had to do some gear improvising and I created a snowboard for Charlie.

I personally think that Charlie will be a little cold; however, I have known people to ski in shorts on a clear, April, Colorado day.

Once Ezra’s action figure was like Asher’s . . . the world was a happy place filled with danger and stunts.

And more stunts . . .

And more jumps . . .

With the grand finale of jumps . . .

The four great things about this toy:

It has its own carrying case that can also be the playing field that can be purchased separately ($30 . . . gulp). (Great if you purchase all 5 action figures {$18 each} …. which has been hinted at around this house.)

The toys are open-ended . . . which encourages creative play . . . and trust me my boys were creative!
Serves as a great tool to try “dangerous” stunts out while being relatively safe. Relatively.
Even dad approved of this particular soft toy that is reminiscent of some toys his daughter has that collect dust, are swaddled, and filled with stuffing.
