However, these aren\u2019t the first toys pulling from familiar intellectual properties (IPs). Over the decades, there have been notable attempts to bring games to the action figure market. The most important attempt was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.figurerealm.com\/actionfigure?action=seriesitemlist&amp;id=51&amp;ssid=-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>LJN<\/b><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.figurerealm.com\/actionfigure?action=seriesitemlist&amp;id=51&amp;ssid=-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> line of <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.figurerealm.com\/actionfigure?action=seriesitemlist&amp;id=51&amp;ssid=-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Advanced <\/b><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.figurerealm.com\/actionfigure?action=seriesitemlist&amp;id=51&amp;ssid=-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Dungeons &amp; Dragons<\/b><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.figurerealm.com\/actionfigure?action=seriesitemlist&amp;id=51&amp;ssid=-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> figures<\/a> from the 1980s. This line coincided with the <b>D&amp;D<\/b> cartoon of the era, though it didn\u2019t bring the main cast to plastic. Instead, it offered original characters, some of whom appeared in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drivethrurpg.com\/product\/16969\/AC1-The-Shady-Dragon-Inn-Basic?affiliate_id=814082\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">supplements<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.drivethrurpg.com\/product\/16969\/AC1-The-Shady-Dragon-Inn-Basic?affiliate_id=814082\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> from <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.drivethrurpg.com\/product\/16969\/AC1-The-Shady-Dragon-Inn-Basic?affiliate_id=814082\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>TSR<\/b><\/a>. This line broke down the barrier between action figures and toys. The line didn\u2019t last, but it started RPG\u2019s move to plastic.<\/p>\n<p>Anecdotally, <b>LJN\u2019s<\/b> line might be seen as the completion of a cycle. Let me explain. Many early <b>D&amp;D<\/b> monsters were based on cheap toys that Gary Gygax and company could put onto the gaming table as reference. They were small, fun, and helped to inform the early days of <b>D&amp;D<\/b>. From these toys came elements of <b>D&amp;D<\/b>, so it\u2019s only fitting that <b>D&amp;D<\/b> make its way back to toys.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/VtM-Image-taken-from-Ebay.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-28146 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/VtM-Image-taken-from-Ebay-300x229.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"229\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/VtM-Image-taken-from-Ebay-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/VtM-Image-taken-from-Ebay-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.d20radio.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/VtM-Image-taken-from-Ebay.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>After that line, there have been smaller projects, some action figure lines, some tabletop tie-ins.

It amounted to three figures, but they were iconic <b>VtM<\/b> characters like Lucita, Theo Bell, and Beckett. Like the <b>LJN<\/b> figures of the \u201880s, these figures are crude by today\u2019s standards, but it\u2019s still cool that something from <b>The Masquerade<\/b> can be displayed on your action figure shelf.<\/p>\n<p>The next year, as a tabletop tie-in, there were the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Shadowrun_Duels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Shadowrun Duels<\/b><\/a> from <b>Heroclix<\/b> that were action figure sized semi articulated figures and a new version of <b>Heroclix<\/b>.
