Action figures and superhero toys: sizes, ages and what moves

In short

Pick the size by age: big 10-inch figures and LED masks for 3–6 year olds, playsets and multi-packs for 5–8, and detailed figures with more moving joints for 8 and up. Prices start around Rs 1,150 for a mask and Rs 2,990 for a figure pack.

Superheroes are the most-asked-for toys for boys aged 3 to 10, and plenty of girls love them too. The choice is wide, so here's how to pick the right size and type.

Sizes explained

Size Best for Good to know
Mini figures (2–3 inch) Collectors, ages 5+ Sold in packs; small parts
Standard figures (5–7 inch) Ages 4+ Arms and legs move; good for play scenes
Big figures (10–12 inch) Ages 3+ Easy for small hands; Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thanos (about Rs 5,990)

What moves?

Most figures move at the shoulders, hips and neck. More detailed figures add elbows, knees and wrists. Younger children are happy with 5 moving points; older children and collectors look for more. The product photos and description show what each figure does.
