I mean, action figure is just a different name for dolls, let’s be honest here.

Dolls AND action figures, never really got the point of either. It doesn’t seem all that fun to position a plastic figure and act like it’s real. I mean, I played with legos and acted out scenes and stuff, but honestly I had more fun with the vehicles than I did with the characters inside them.
Ironically, I’m currently enjoying the Rozen Maiden manga, which is literally about dolls.

i still have my legos, stopped getting them after lego went and replaced bionicle with that hero factory crap. i had & still have a few action figures & stuffed animals, all pokemon stuff though. never acted out scenes though. to busy being a little demon back then, i still remember the screams of some college kid getting his ass handed to him by a 5 year-old me after he offered me some candy. first a punch in the nuts, then poke his eyes lastly kicked him down and started stomping on his crotch til my mom pulled me off him and told me he was my cousin.

Young Erin’s band-aid is a nice touch.

Action Figures theoretically straddle the boundary between dolls and toy soldiers. They’re typically smaller than the former and larger than the latter, and the emphasis is on role-playing / stage-setting / re-enactment and a strong nudge toward collecting. Emphasis for toy soldiers is pretty much limited to wargames, and the pieces tend to be relatively anonymous. Emphasis on dolls tends to lean toward role-playing, but with a strong bent (at least in the modern toy industry) toward dress-up / fashion and an equally strong pull toward collecting.

There are times when I wonder what things would be like if toys were still mostly generic, and crafted rather than manufactured…

Bah, you don’t know what you’re talking about, dolls are girly girly, and action figures have Action in the name, duh!
I wish Mattel would attempt an experiment where they make a series of Barbie toys with “Action” in the name, and give them spring loaded missile launchers and stuff.
The result would probably be a lot of little kids looking up Action Barbie’s skirt.
The gimmicks were always the true draw of Action Figures. In childhood, most of my toys were Transformers or transformed anyway. In Adulthood, I collect… transformers, Revoltechs, Gunplas, … Figmas… Nendoroids…
Umm yeah, but they’re so fun to pose and take funny photos of! Did a long series of photos of SOTN Dracula searching among my toy collection for an example of a Man…
