Favorite Action Figure Company?

[The Dork Knight]

I chose Jaks Pacific for the wawy they make their wrestling figures and Hasbro for the sweet line of Star Wars Toys.

Playmates. They made the TMNT toys, which cost my family hundreds of dollars. Yeah, and they were fun to play with. :P

Macfarlane. Not because his characters are any good, or because there are many figures they make that I want (except Ash - I have Evil Ash, need some money to get good Ash.. goody little two shoes.... etc..)

They just look good and as a kid I'd have died for such accurate model work.

Kids have it so easy these days ;)

AHHH!! As the resident Toy Maniac..I shall correct you..
Its "McFarlane Toys", and its Mego(The 'original' action figure company. Made figures from everything between Batman to Happy Days!)

I chose Other, mainly because I dont have a favorite.
McFarlane produces the right toys, great sculpts, excelent paint aps., but the lack of articulation in the toys that I would want articulation in...
Hasbro produces a lot of my favorite lines, but ultimately...its Hasbro...
Mattel usually puts out really high quality toys..just..not the toys I really like..

I'd say Bandai(Makers of Gundam, Anime Collector, Power Rangers, etc.,) is one of the better companies(they just do it..don't put out to much, & are fairly customer friendly)
There's Irwin Toys..they make the DBZ(crappy show) toys, but they also make Reboot(YAY!)
IF Labs has a lot of GREAT anime toy lines coming out. And cross your fingers, they might just get the license to "Lupin III"! They have a habit of making their figures 9" tall, with plenty of articulation, & great sculpts..and thats what I want to see in my Lupin toys! ;)

BANDAI!!!!! :D I have my own little reasons for thinking they are the best.............

i was torn between hasbro and playmates, but i ultimately chose hasbro. i loved the g.i. joes. don't they make transformers too?

Hasbro has been doing excellent work on the Star Wars line..but..

My vote goes for McFarlane. Their latest Spawn Line (Spawn 21: Alternate Realities...releases in march) is so detailed it's amazing. I mean, look at this figure and tell me your jaw doesn't drop:

I have to say that McFarlane toys are definitely the best looking, but no toy line in the history of man has ever been as fun and exciting as Transformers so my vote goes to Hasbro.

Heh, if I could only have one Spawn toy..ever...It'd be that one. I've been drooling over that for MONTHS!
To bad it's more of a statue, than a figure(McFarlane doesn't understand the word "articulation", outside of the MGS2 line..hehe)

lol, yeah, their articulation in their lines is pretty limited....Spawn Series 17 were considered mini-statues.

But, Spawn 20 is a line full of articulation. Medievil Spawn has over 20 points I think.. (hey..that's ALOT for mcfarlane)
