Maybe its just me but I cannot stand it when my friends call my figure collection "dolls" and especially "figurines". It's got almost a negative feel to it. I dont know. Figurine makes me think of like little fairy statues. LOL

No, I consider myself a little bit more stable than that.

Dolls, figures, figurines it's all good. But my personal definition for each is...
When I think Dolls I think anything with removable clothing...so they fit the bill.
When I think Action figure I think DCUC, ML, SW Black, WWE...Basically any posable figure.
When I think figurine I think LJN WWE or little plastic armymen. Basically any solid molded figure.

Slightly off task, but I hate when I ask workers at a store "Do you happen to have *name of wrestler" from this set?" And they reply "Let me check if we have that character."
They're real life people lol. I don't really hear people call them figurines much though.
