xDDD Well, "sadly," since I don't have any Avatar toys, I'm not that affected. A Toph figure would be pwnsome though.

To bad we will never see this to be a reality. Seeing how the line was officially canceled. There is still hope that the series maybe back someday, let's hope the live action movie will add some awareness that Avatar is still out there. In the meantime, as long as we have a talented fan base who are more then willing selling their custom figures on sites like eBay. I guess that will have to do. Some of the artist on DH are truly amazing. It is still sad that not even Iroh manged to get a figure.
Anyways if the line ever did come back, why do I have a feeling that all of the girl characters are going to be made into Barbie dolls? I was at Wal-Mart sometime ago and I noticed something. They are making High School Musical Barbie dolls. The next time I visited, all of them are sold out. It was funny too, because the only the girls were still available and the guys were sold out. xDD Then a thought occurred to me, what if the creators of the toy line decided to make the girl characters into dolls for the girls. That will be so stupid. I will still buy them for collectors purposes, it will also be stupid because they will probably not be to scale of the figures. What do you think about this theory?

Well, hopefully they wouldn't do that, but I still wouldn't get them either way, unless they were for a gift. Where did you hear the toy line was canceled though? I haven't seen anything about that...

Search around AvatarSpirit or Distant Horizon, they are bound to have the topic up and all of the necessary links to the article or what not. Apparently it was canceled because the chairman or whatever killed himself due to low sells. I really don't remember much, just search the links I gave you.

The chairman...killed himself because of low sales? xDDDD I highly doubt that. Even so, they whole line wouldn't be canceled because of it. I searched Google and couldn't find anything about the line being canceled.

Well it probably wasn't the real reason, it was probably something that happened to the company around the same time and people contacted the two. Either way I heard Avatar wasn't the only line to be canceled. There is a lot of information at the links I gave you.

Yeah, but it's like impossible to find specific topics in forums that size...

That is what the search option is for.

Okay, then, if it's so easy, you find one and link to it.

It's better to just ask a new topic. Mostly because if there is one that already exist, then the mods will lock it and post a link to the existing thread.

Yeah, but that's most likely frowned upon. It wastes the mod's time and it defeats the purpose of the search. Anyway...

AvatarSpirit seems to get annoyed, although Distant Horizons seems like they do not care if anyone does it. They are probably the more polite and easy going forums out of the "Big Three" so to speak. PM a moderator if they can help you on where the thread is. DH Mods will probably be proud to help you out.

What do you think about this theory? ...I'd personally go and beat up the people who made them if that happened. That would be very sexist of them as well if they make the guys into action figures and the girls into... dolls. But they do that in a lot of places. Like...for power rangers, they have all the guys as action figures but I never noticed a girl action figure. Maybe it's just me?

I'll still buy the dolls though, since I cannot help myself when buying merchandise of Avatar. I just won't open them. Plus maybe with all of the letters that the community writes and the money everyone pays for Avatar merchandise there may be a better chance of them making action figures, but I guess we just have to settle with custom made figures on eBay and other Avatar fansites. I saw a really good looking Ty Lee figure using Aang as a base. I was amazed how they manged to add the breast to him.
