Monzo: Separate sections?

	I personally feel that Attacktix figures should be moved into Merchandise sections instead of toy sections. While they were intended to be part of a game, they are essentially statuttes with some moveable parts, and I feel that their characterization as toys is making the "unreleased toy" category appear very misleadingly large. (I wouldn't be opposed to an Unreleased Attacktix category, though, as we certainly have more than enough of 'em.) What does everyone else think? --[[User:Monzo\|Monzo]] 22:22, 24 November 2009 (EST)		I personally feel that Attacktix figures should be moved into Merchandise sections instead of toy sections.
