Greeting from Belgium

Post by Wax »

Hi guys,

First off thank you to Jim for inviting me to the forum.
I am 42 and grew up playing with early action force. It fitted perfectly with my star wars, and since my dad was a fan of military and WWII, he encouraged me.
As a fan and collector of 80ies toys in general, and merch - blogwriter for the larger geekster.be, I started collecting AF again early this year. I had some left from my childhood (unfortuantely, I sold most of it 10 years ago). I'ts been a rekindled love. :-) The search for the toys has not been easy in these parts. You'll find a lot of Z-Force, without accesories or guns. So, basically, it's been ebay and shops.
I've included what I have so far.
I've used this website for background information. It's really the only one out there.

I've recently found some old pictures from my childhood. My dad used to take pictures at the beach.
Need to scan them properly.

Nice pics, welcome to AF HQ.
Let me tell you, Gunner La-De-Dah Graham, the British Army can fight anything! Intimate or not!

Yeah, we did. That's why I got so many SAS soldiers. He loved those special ops teams.

Hello and welcome. Cracking photos :)
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?
