If you don't know what action figures are, they are basically dolls that are appropriate for either gender. The name makes them more palatable to young boys, who might find it embarassing to be found playing with "dolls" per se. Most lines of action figures have a Manichean world view where the forces of good battle the forces of evil. GI Joe for example is a force of American solidiers who battle the international terrorist force known as Cobra. He-Man and the masters of the universe were in constant conflict with the evil Skeletor and his cronies. Bible action figures could easily fit within this genre convention, however most figures released have represented only the good characters with rare exception.
Hopefully as the market for Bible action figures matures, we will see more characters released, and the full range of Biblical narratives brought literally into play. The great war of the Creator versus the Adversay, in the vein that Milton or Bosch might have represented it, presents a rich imaginative landscape for young minds, and hopefully we will see it brought to its full potential.
On this site, we will examine the different companies that have release figures both from the Old and New testaments of the bible. You can browse figures by name, as well as searching by bible story. If you are looking to buy Bible Action Figures, you can visit our store, which will show you where you can get the best deals online. We will also present a wealth of suggested new toys that you can construct on your own until such time as someone produces them as a product on the market.
