This is a great thread Jonesy!

Its great seeing such rare items, pretty much all of which I'll never own!

I'd never seen that boxed SAS MMS before - thanks for posting the pic!



My rare stuff - for me - is my 7 German moc's [Paul463 - thank you and welcome to the gang!] and my prototypes.

I absolutely love my 'Wave 3.5' too.

Lady Jaye, I love the sound of your multi-pistoled sas pilot - picture please?


Also, to me, stuff like the Baron's Q Force Tactical Base custom totally rocks as something truly unique and wonderful!


Anyway, love this thread and Jonesy, what a magnificent collection!

Man, I have nothing like any of this stuff, I have a few carded, but nothing comparitivley rare. I guess the rarest things I have, and probably the oddest, are a set of retailer invoices for Action Force toys and also a set of the trade catalogues.

I don't have anything overly rare either...the rarest being by BAF comic collections...which will not be worth too much now with the upcoming compilations... other than them the rarest thing I probably have is the 25th Anniversary Snake Eyes with BLACK Timber.
Though I do have some neat things...
an animation cell of SkyCreeper
Libby Aubrey's autographed picture (the voice of COver Girl from the cartoon)
A couple of letters from Bill Ratner (Flint)

i hunted in vain for a snake-eyes and when i eventualy found one it would be out of my price range.
lucked on the black wolf varient on ebayuk and won it for £1-60 + p+p against one other bidder.
couldnt believe my luck

I don't know if it's rare, but I've got two wave 1 British Commando's..one's got his webbing packs painted in a lighter shade of green to the rest of the figure..the other ones webbing is just plain unpainted.

i've given this some thought and while i have quite a lot of toys the rarest toy i own is the san diago comic con exclusive solomon grundy(varient).(justice league unlimited)
if memory serves they only made 5000 of these with 1 in 10 being the variant. the plan was to mass produce these toys after the con but the molds were damaged and they decided to pull the figure

ahhh, well if the net is cast beyond Action Force, then I have a fair few unique and rare Star Wars toys, from unproduced prototypes through to scarce card variants. Sadly nothing is on display at the moment, but one of the big objectives for 2009 is to sort out the spare room to get a few pieces on display, at the moment, the bulk of it looks similar to this:

VERY nice Dave!

[Dave Tree]

Thanks, most of it has been sat in boxes for years, BUT, the aim this year is to sort out the spare room into a display room - finally.

It's been decorated, just need to kit it out with the right display cabinets and shelving, but even so, the collection on display will be on rotation, as there just isn't enough room.

Doh!!!
