Preview: POP Toys 1/6 scale Women's Leather Windbreaker sets A & B - White or Black

There has never been more female apparel being made and sold than these past few years ;p Aside from Barbie clothes meant for dollies and girls, action figures have always been male dominated i.e. male figures for boys and men who refuse to grow up haha

Not anymore it seems. Hot Toys have been producing and releasing quite a number of fine female forms of late and collectors, both male and female alike, have been snapping them up with much enthusiasm. The fine line of dolls vs action figures has become almost non-distinct, especially with the release of Zack Snyder's 2011 "Sucker Punch" movie with female cast that have names like Baby Doll, Sweet Peas, Rocket, Amber and Blondie fighting with machine guns and swords while wearing rather sexy girl clothes.


Japanese manga and anime have been putting female characters as leads for some time. Studio Ghibli, best known for 2001’s Oscar-winning "Spirited Away", has been rolling out a dynasty of strong, intelligent, independent-minded girl characters since 1984. Girl heroes are the stars of Japan’s animation industry but anywhere else, it’s hard to think of any leading women characters in this cinematic genre.

The gloves do make the difference but alas, they are NOT part of the outfit set :(
