cyranoStolen from Satyr69 because it amused the hell out of me. Do please take the time to respond?
Go to the toy aisle of any store. All the dolls (or "action figures") come packaged with one or two "accessories." Barbie has her purse, The Hulk has a big rock, Space Ghost has little cards and a desk.
If I were to go to the toy store and buy a YOU action figure, which one or two little objects would be in your package with you? And what do you think would come with the Cyrano action figure?
And for the Bonus Round: Barbie, Batman and other toys often have several versions, like Beach Barbie or Ninja Barbie. Would your action figure or mine have different versions/sets?
