Creation
Action Boy's sculpting and design are, like Captain Action's, expertly crafted, including his lean athletic body. Action Boy measures 9" in height, and features brown-painted hair and eyebrows, black-painted eyes and eyelids, a pink-painted lower lip and teeth, and rosy cheeks. The plastic figure is jointed at the neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, waist, hips, knees, and ankles; like Captain Action, you can pose him in 1001 positions.
Action Boy was brought back briefly in 2000 under the name "Kid Action" when Playing Mantis, a mid-west collectibles company reproduced some of the original Ideal toy line. The name was changed to avoid possible legal entanglements at the time. "Kid" Action Boy was released in his original uniform. Uniform sets for Speed Racer and Hanna Barbera's Jonny Quest and Hadji were also planned, but the line was canceled before this came to be.
