PVC figures or more known as inaction figures didn't really turn my head. You were limited or more like prohibited from what pose or what expression or clothes the figure had. It was all geared to what the sculpturer and the company decided.
That was until I came across the K-T Dead or Alive Kasumi PVC fig at convention dealer's room.
The surprise that something under 4 inches (10cm) could have more points of articulation and accessories than larger North American action figures. I did find the figure stiff as it seemed that some parts appeared stuck together. A little carefull coaching got all points moving. However I was cautious not to accidently break off the small pins which hands and head fit into.

The one thing I noticed interesting is how they handled the elbow joint. Instead of a joint which bend like the knees, they cut the joint diagonally which caused the arm to rotate on 45 degree angle which formed an bent elbow.
