See-through, Dark green guys - Action Force figures?

Post by Mailawaykraken »

I recall an early nineteen-eighties range of figures - like 3 3/4 inch semi-clothed men and women, with bright yellow paint for hair and eyes, but ultimately made from a dark-green see-through plastic. Were these aliens/robots/holograms from Action Force or something else? I can find no trace of the things anywhere!

Hi! And welcome aboard! I dont recall these figures, but can certainly state they are not Action Force.

Sure some other members will have some ideas - we collect all sorts between us!

I couldn't decide whether it would be Jaye, or Andy who knew, so I decided not to guess.

I bet Andy knows too though.

Magic - my first post here and you all helped immensely! My twenty-six year old mystery comes to an end. Seriously, thankyou - hope to pitch in and help in the same way in the future!

... it was the X-Ray couple from Fisher-Price, incidentally! Again, incredible! I owe you all!

Have just found a pic of a mint-on-card 'X-Ray Woman' - no wonder my childhood memory insisted it was 'Action Force', as the card backing is not didimilar.
