>>11014460NTA, but I never bashed the toys when I was a kid. I never got that. Maybe you were a retarded kid? I would set up scenes and imagine the action in my head. I still do, though I don't use the floor to the ceiling like I would back then.
I do like to set up scenes and yes, make use of the features the playsets and vehicles have. Not necessarily whooshing them around but
I think there's a very primal pleasure in setting up these little scenes and scenarios. Even if the quality of the figure isn't great or the articulation isn't perfect, having playsets lends itself more to coming up with scenes. Remember that people were collecting toys back when the level of accuracy and articulation was nowhere near it is now- toys can have a collect-ability just for being toys.
