Bob told me the middle sections on the transporter are a mock-up but the aim was that each of the pod's would carry a figure. Bob had a great looking book with him that he'd put together which had a load of cool archive stuff in it. Hope he gets it into print soon!

Me too.

Did you spot, in one of the toy fair dio' pictures, that strange looking :baron: like figure wearing (what appeared to be) red shoulder armour & cape?
I think I pointed it out to Jim.

It was a tiny detail that, when I pointed it out top him & asked, Bob :bow: said he'd not noticed it before & didn't recall what or who it was. :(

I'm still gutted I missed Bob's talk the transport looks like a Space 1999 Eagle ship.

Absolutely, hopefully not so far off as he seems to have a draft ready ...

There was also a design sketch for a :zforce: vehicle using this old Action man toy:

It would of had a new :AFLogo: scaled interior, very much along the same lines as the :zforce: A.T.C., with medical bay etc.

WOW! Great to see these and looking forward to more revelations. I wonder if that image could be cleaned up at all? I'm guessing Bob's original is pretty faded?
I was looking at AM vehicles to copy and thought about that one maybe using a cut up Hyena? or a big alteration on a Maggot.

This is really exciting stuff. Can we have a thread for just these revelations and tantalising glimpses of what could have been - a Concept Thread or something.

And I know this has been asked before, but who now owns the copyright on the AF figures/vehicles - obviously Mr Brechin owns the drawing, but could he commercially produce a new set of AF stuff from these drawings, and would it be under the AF banner?
