...do we have any evidence that these have been referred to in-universe, or would this article be better off detailing the relatively recent trend in toys to have feet that extend behind the leg as well as in front?--RosicrucianTalk 13:38, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- It's supposed to be about high heels, so... no, nothing in-universe. Extending it into a more serious exploration of toys that have gone that was as materials and design approach have gottern more radical and their feet are no longer bricklike might be a good idea too though. Any good examples pop to mind? (ideally a toy with a bricklike G1 foot, and a modern toy with a dainty one?) -Derik 13:42, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- Heck, even bricklike ones usually have an extra strut behind these days for stability's sake. Witness recent figs with big feet like Classics Optimus Prime or Animated Voyager Megatron. Movie Leader Prime has an automorph mechanism dedicated just to giving his feet struts in the back for crying out loud.
- Which, incidentally, takes all the fun out of firing a missile at a fig to make it fall down.--RosicrucianTalk 13:49, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
