Prompt: A Gen X woman action figure in stylish packaging labeled 'Marketing Maven – Gen X’er'. The figure is dressed in trendy athleisure: black leggings, a cropped magenta hoodie that says '92%', and pink/black Nike-style sneakers. Accessories in the packaging include a modern silver laptop (like a MacBook), a teal smartphone, a white insulated water bottle, and a second pair of high-top sneakers. The background of the box is sleek black and beige, with the word 'ACCESSORIES' labeled over the items. She has brown skin, long soft waves, and a confident, warm expression. The packaging is clean, modern, and Instagrammable, like a collector's edition doll.

Heyyy Gen X'er...wherever you may find yourself... I want you to know that you're NOT ALONE.
