The maradydd action figure? Now, that's a real collector's item, because there aren't very many of them—they were all made by hand, you see, and no two are exactly alike. There are some in civilian clothes, some in uniform; there's one with a laptop, one with a book, one with a rifle, one with a pencil and paper, one with a VTA system map, and so on. They are constructed to different scales, and in different styles, with wildly varying degrees of realism and stylization. But they are all, oddly enough, instantly recognizable as belonging to the set of maradydd action figures. Anyone who has seen even just a couple of them can, upon encountering an unfamiliar one, identify it as sharing some essential but hard-to-define property with the others.
