Toys
Jinx was first released as an action figure in the 1987 edition of the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero toyline. Like many of the female G.I. Joe characters, Jinx has had a very small number of action figures produced. As of 2011, she has had one 3 3/4-inch figure named Jinx, and two 3 3/4-inch figures named "Agent Jinx". One of these ("Covert Infiltration Specialist", released in 2004) actually reveals her face, but her real name is still classified.
In 2011, a new Jinx figure was announced for the exclusive pre-release by the official G.I. Joe Collectors' Club. Two different new 3 3/4-inch figures, named "Kim Arashikage", were announced to be released in the G.I. Joe: Retaliation 2012 Movie Line exclusively at the San Diego Comic-Con 2012: an updated classic in a red ninja suit, and an unmasked variant of her wearing a white costume and wielding a kusarigama.

Famous quotes containing the word toys:
“It is marvelous indeed to watch on television the rings of Saturn close; and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxy’s edge. But in the process, we have lost the human element; not to mention the high hope of those quaint days when flight would create “one world.” Instead of one world, we have “star wars,” and a future in which dumb dented human toys will drift mindlessly about the cosmos long after our small planet’s dead.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“Man hath still either toys or care:
But hath no root, nor to one place is tied,
But ever restless and irregular,
About this earth doth run and ride.
He knows he hath a home, but scarce knows where;
He says it is so far,
That he has quite forgot how to go there.”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
“When I was sick and lay a-bed,
I had two pillows at my head,
And all my toys beside me lay
To keep me happy all the day.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
