The only reason some around here get offended is because they just refuse to see what they are..... grown ups (some still kids perhaps) playing with a digital Barbie and Ken. That's all we are people.... Poser compared to Max/Maya is only a toy, but a cool toy.

 

Some people have done some pretty interesting stuff using Barbie, Ken, G.I. Joe, and various (mostly Japanese) action figures. There's someone who photographed a vampire story using a total of about fifteen dolls, mostly with home-made/modified costumes, and home-built sets. It came to about eighty photos. Someone else recreated Apollo 13 using GI joes and a home-build Apollo CM and LM interior. Someone else created a very lovingly built tribute to the Challenger crew based on their official crew photograph using a combination of G.I. Joes and Barbies -- he modified the heads to look like the actuall astronauts.
