Many people of all ages have grown up with a favourite toy, one that will never be forgotten. Whether one is a boy or girl the marvel action figures were always sitting on the shelves in bedrooms. There have even been movies made about these characters that everyone both young and old thoroughly enjoys watching.
These toys stands about three and three quarters of an inch high and are made by Hasbro, an American international toy and board game company. They are considered to be the largest toy makers and the headquarters are situated in Rhode Island. However the toys are produced in East Asia.
Dolls are much larger than either of them and will normally come with clothes that can be removed. Depending on the make of doll they are able to be posed and can usually reach twelve inches in height or even taller. They are able to have different accessories such as hand held gear, hats, handbags and weapons.
Seventeen years after first opening they produced the first nurse and doctor toy kits as well as modelling clay. Two years later after the first toys reached the shelves they were basically a toy company. When Hillel died, Henry became the Chief Executive Officer and his son Merrill was advanced into becoming the president.
The Thor hero has a hammer that never seems to get broken and will always return. He is immortal, can fly and is not afraid of anyone. Due to the small parts he is not suitable for any child under the age of three. In some makes the hammer comes with batteries and is able to glow.
He eventually sold these figures for five thousand dollars to a cereal company where they were going to be inserted into breakfast boxes as giveaways. However the Hassenfeld Brothers, now known as Hasbro, offered him a better deal. Lerner together with the manufacturers bought the rights back for two thousand dollars more.
When Henry died in 1960 Merrill took over while his older brother carried on running the pencil making division. It was to become known as the Empire Pencils. One year later they opened up a branch in Canada where they were asked to license a toy base for a television series. They decided that it was in their best interest to turn them down as they did not want to be tied down to something that had a potential to be short lived.
To add to their popularity there are now cups, water bottles as well as watches that are based on each of these super heroes. Boys T-shirts are always a very popular gift to give as well as pyjamas. Nothing is more exciting than being able to go to bed at night knowing that the print on ones top will keep one safe during the night and keep nightmares away.
