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 someone 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? Furthermore, what outfit would you be wearing, and what action would you perform when they pressed the little lever on your back?

The gridlore action figure is wearing faded jeans, a convention t-shirt, and a Giants cap (not removable). It comes packaged with a book and a can of Coke. The wire rim glasses are tinted and come with Real Smudges(tm) When the little button is pressed, it quotes rules and setting information for Traveller (Over 500 different phrases!)

The Grimmwire Fully Articulated Action Figurine would come with black Converse skate shoes, grey-green phat pants, dark green t-shirt, black pullover Wired hoody with yellow shock-hazard logo on the front, accessorized by a sketchbook, digital video camera, microphone, and a giant tottering stack of science fiction novels. It can also store 10,000 mp3s, includes headphone jacks and Firewire, is compatible only with Macs, and can harmonize along with songs if so desired.

It is anatomically correct and, uh, fully functional, but no one ever takes off its clothes.
