That there perfectly sums up your issue. Not to insult you, but that's an incredibly childish/immature motive for buying an action figure. To me it's terribly sad that an adult is buying a figure and having thoughts like, 'This guys is good, he gets the girls.' If you're motivated by weird thoughts like that, I can completely understand now why you'd object to a figure like this.
Honestly what draws you to a movie like Die Hard, or a Superhero like Superman or Batman if it isn't that he is a good guy that overcomes evil and gets the girl.
Well technically Batman doesn't get the girl he grows old and alone, just saying...
I have Alex Delarge and Jack Torrance in my collection, I guess that means I'm motivated to **** and murder my family too right?
getting a girl might as well be jumping off an exploding roof.
I was quoting you. I don't know what your exact interest is in those figures but we definitely know now what your interest is in John McClane and to me it's rather bizarre. You single out a man 'getting the girl' as some sort of achievement alongside 'jumping off exploding roofs' and that says to me that both both things are extremely remote to you (whereas to most people only one would be). For you, getting a girl might as well be jumping off an exploding roof.
I'm not trying to insult you but that you put that out there as a motive for buying a figure says to me you have a very childish mindset and thus it's understandable why you think that the only use one could have for a female figure is as some sort of sexual item.
So again why do you buy a toy doll Grosby if it isn't admiration, or respect, is it simply that you like to make pew pew laser noises while you bang them against each other as though they are fighting?
I buy a figure if I find them visually interesting (as a toy with its intricacies or as a character with its costume and whatnot) or if I have an interest in the source material (on pretty much any level other than the sexual one that you say you're driven by).
