The Mystery Machine Starts it's Engine
I have heard a rumour from a source so strong I can't dismiss it, and now I need to find one as i think it's real.
Recondo may of been released as a carded figure on a palitoy card, everything palitoy did well I can really believe it.

Re: The Mystery Machine Starts it's Engine
I'm not convinced. In over a decade I've never seen it. I think it's the Loch ness Monster of action force.

Re: The Mystery Machine Starts it's Engine
Are we talking the whole set, canoe etc, or just the figure itself carded?
Maybe some
's may of gotten (miss)carded right @ the end to clear the stockrooms?
Maybe some

More news, as its made, from new Action Force!
Re: The Mystery Machine Starts it's Engine
My childhood
was carded, not on a Palitoy card but on one of those "Action Figure" four-packs.
I got his kayak separately, funnily enough, in a department store flood damage sale.

Where did the rumour spring from?
Presume you mean a "proper" card with bio and all?

Re: The Mystery Machine Starts it's Engine
I know Buddosky agrees with you. But I'm not convinced! As a miscard - possibly. As a full blown bio'd up fig? No. None ever seen, not even a cardback. Convince yourself otherwise and this becomes your Yeti hunt Ed! A quest you'll never prove or disprove!

Maybe but worth a look though, bit like a UK picture box cosmic cruiser.

Re: The Mystery Machine Starts it's Engine
I've never seen one in the the ten years of BFTB, no recollection of one as a child either.
Re: The Mystery Machine Starts it's Engine
It's one of my clearest memories, Recondo on a Palitoy Cardback with Recondo Bio hanging on a peg in Fenwicks, Newcastle. This was well before the end of the line. In addition, I'm quite certain that the Silent Attack was never released in the North East as I searched high and low for it before a friend got me one from Leeds.
