For the year of 2006-
1. Star Wars
2. GiJoe
3. Bionicle
4. Transformers
So yeah, Hasbro is dominating, and Transformers are generally high up. I've boughten plenty of stuff from every line in the top four save GiJoe (that's my brother's department).

In addition, I would not put Bionicle with action figures, as it is commonly sold as a construction set.
I think the general placement tends to vary from year to year, but in practice....
Star Wars, Power Rangers, Transformers, WWE and GI Joe are all usually among the top 5 brands in a given year. If anything goes wrong...blame Twin Twist Quote: |

Star Wars, Power Rangers, Transformers, WWE and GI Joe are all usually among the top 5 brands in a given year. | Lego markets them as action figures, sure they're construction sets, but in all outside media descriptions they're rated as action figures.
Besides, that was for Boys brands, nothing about where it was restricted to just Action Figures, and I was also surprised that I didn't hear any mention of Power Rangers in ANY press releases about rankings.
