All of them? I'm just going to assume "all of them".I remember back in the day Marvel argued their X-Men action figures weren't human so they could qualify for a lower tariff.https://www.polygon.com/comics/2019/9/12/20862474/x-men-series-toys-human-legal-issue-marvel-comics
Look, as long as they don't mess with Lego, I don't give a shit. Most toys are trash and I should know: I'm a parent.

So are all super powered characters non human? What about Green Lantern or Batman? Are they dolls?
Well, Batman has no powers, and technically, Green Lantern uses a power ring.
I feel like the X-Men in question would have a lot to say about that ruling.
