Toy RPGs anyone?

Posted in Action Figure Chatter

Anybody else ever make a tabletop roleplaying game out of their toys? I used to rig them up now and again when I was younger. They were usually pretty simple affairs that resolved entirely around combat using dice. I remember my younger brother made a neat wrestling combat game with his M.U.S.C.L.E. figures. Everybody fought with a six-sided dice, with the higher numbers corresponding to more devastating moves. Whomever currently held the belt got to fight with an eight-sided die, making them tougher.

Although I don't own any, the Shadowrun action figures had a game built around them and their accessories which looked interesting. It'd be cool if there was a toy-centric gaming system that you could use to incorporate everything from super heroes to giant robots into one all-inclusive universe (something like the RIFTS tabletop RPG I guess).
