Action Man

how about a little section on Action man?

in the new DVD X missions they all say out loud ACTION FORCE!!!

also there is nothing out there at all as far as fan websites go. only actionman.com and thats hasbros official site

Sounds good to me... I am really interested in discovering all the goodies that came out once Action Man branched off from its "G.I. Joe" roots and introduced characters like Dr. X, Dr. Gangrene, No Face & the Team Extreme. Hasbro's site is not very helpful, being as they only show the current year's toys...

and as enjoyable as the mainframe produced action man series was I really dont consider that to be the real action man

I think the Series from 1996 and Last years and this years CGI movies are the real Action man

both of these have action man being from europe with a british accent

maybe a honorable mention of the mainframe series would be okay but I want to see alot about the series I mentioned and the toys really relating to the spirit of action man from the UK

Now, don't be hasty! It would at least be interesting to differentiate the various Action Man incarnations here on this website. I didn't even realize that the "Action Man" of Robot Atak was different than the Team Extreme "Action Man". I would like to get the facts somewhat straight, and there is nothing to go on over here in the U.S. (I can't even find the Action Man stuff that ran on Saturday mornings for 2 years!) I want to hear from the U.K. buyers who know this stuff!

we really do need to have a section on this I mean the BAF comics have action man then action force so why not?

there should be something on the original action man ( which I know nothing of)

then the Mainframe produced years ( enjoyed the show but didnt feel like action man to me)

then the 95-96 cell animated years with the new CGI ROBOT ATAK and X Missions Movies (and include the gi joe night force figure here) with action force
This last one is my favorite and is action man to me a british accent and a military spy action force theme

[jamarmiller]

your right but I also never said it featured action man what I meant was and I should rephrase it is "It said in the title "Action Man Action Force many times over and over

sorry I should have been more clear my bad

eeeeek sorry to push the wrong buttons with you dude, I like the BAF and action force comics and I have a few of the action figures too, I do put the two as like cousins though

[jamarmiller]

Oh ya the connection to action force is further strengthen when they call themselves ACTION FORCE several times in the new movies,

and to connect the dots more action force became joe way back and then recently action man was made into a Gi joe Figure . THen again the new movie for 2005 they cry out ACTION FORCE, to me its clear thier is some little connection there

at least to me that is a connection

and what makes a true fan a true fan

YIKES sorry dude

just keeping it friendly

Sorry to say I have no plans to extend the site to offer any large scale Action Man coverage of any kind.

Longer term it would be nice to add some coverage of the Palitoy Action Man line, given that a large part of Action Force range was based upon this initially.

However the current Action Man line is way past the area of coverage of the site. Much as we don't cover the Hasbro era Action Force, we are not going to cover the modern Action Man. [/b]
