A toy representing a character is just an imprint shaped by play, a labelled character. They don't want to leave, talking about their glorious times,in which they were once at the top. Icons in films, advertising, stories idealised, glorified and commercialised.
These figures, torn from history, have become myths unable to die due to their mass medialisation, part of our popular culture. But slowly they escape into the wall. They can no longer follow the contemporary, which is not their own, they fall out, become alienated and isolated and lose their once shining status as changing times and new values shift their context.
