Question for the AF vehicle collector?

[momaw nadon]

Hi,
I don't have many of these AF vehicles yet, as I just started to get into them. Only have the Sea Lion so far, but was wondering if the weapons and stuff would be able to fit any of the other vehicles? They have that look to be able to from what I see in pictures. I was wondering how many parts or what parts are interchangeable from vehicles in the AF line? I know that some vehicles use the same mold, but how far does that go? Also on the Hasbro used molds for like the Panther, MMS, and Laser Exterminator, do they have any of the same parts that are used on others AF vehicles? Thanks for any information and or help.

The holes/pegs for guns, aerials or missiles (for latter see blue missiles on Satellite Defence below) are the same size on:

Wave 1: AF1, 3, 5, 7, 9 (all vehicles).
Wave 2: shadowtrak, z-force jeep, sas boat patrol, swordfish, cosmic cruiser and satellite defence.

MMS and Swordfish use the same large missiles.

The flotation ring from the swordfish can be used on the shadowtrak (with a bit of care to remove the 'wings' first.

The boat patrol will sit on top of the z force jeep like the AF3.

I can't remember if the Sealion uses the same size holes for accessories as the above because I don't remember swapping parts between that and other toys. It likely does because it was a Palitoy design, but hopefully someone else can give a definitive answer to that.

Just started (re) collecting AF stuff myself. I could cry when I see how much some of the things I used to have go for nowadays.

Thanks for the help. How about other parts like wheels and stuff like that? Mainly wondering if I pick up damaged items, would it be possible to piece them together. Like could I use the Panther wheels on the AF3 or Z Force Jeep? Or the Shadow Trak wheels on the MMS or Laser Exterminator? Many more examples I could think of, but I think the list could go on for every then. Thank you again for any help.

There are three sizes of wheels with different colours on the hub... Shadow trak wheels are the smallest, and come in black or red hubbed types, next up are MMS / Jeeps / Laser Exterminator / possibly something ive missed which can come in black / yellow or red hubbed then the next are the ATC which I think only came with black hubs...

Apart from the colour / size difference, the wheels are all interchangeable and fit on the different vehicles so you could have an ATC with tiny Shadowtrak wheels or if you didnt mind the colour diff Laser Exterminator wheels on the MMS etc...

Hope thayt answers some of your question and I havent posted that misunderstanding something!

Thank you very much, as that was exactly what I was looking for. I can now broaden my search for items now, as I'm still learning all the little things about these Action Force items.
