AFAIK, "maxifig" is the unofficial name for the "big people" of the 70's (the
ones that you mentioned below), which are also called as "bendyarm"s. I haven't
hear any approved term for technic figures, but I prefer calling them
"technifigs"..:-D

I was just thinking... If you call the 'Town' scale people minifigs, what do
you call the Technic scale people? - Maxifigs??

Anybody else remember the really _BIG_ people? pre-minifigs? they had arms
like Technic, but were about 1.5 times the size with huge heads, thier lower
bodies were just regular 2x2's down to their feet which I think was a couple
of 2x3 plates.

there were a whole familiy of them, mum, dad kids etc must've been in the
early Seventies.

- Discuss.
