Figure heights range from about 4.15 inches for smaller vinyl figures up to around 12.5 inches for larger action-figure packs.
These figures are commonly made from a mix of materials, including PVC (polyvinyl chloride), vinyl, metal parts, and other plastic components.
Packaging ranges from clear window display boxes for collectible vinyl figures to limited-run collector sets that may include numbered certificates and collectible art cards.
Articulation varies by release: simpler figures list about 5 points; larger or deluxe figures list 11, 17, or 18 points; and some highly articulated figures list up to 22 points.
Recommended ages on listings range from '3 years and up' to '15 years and up.' Other common labels include '4 years and up' and '12 years and up.'
Some releases are designated retailer exclusives, while others are produced in limited quantities and sold with numbered collector certificates, making them limited-run collector items.
