Thank's will give him a call today.

While I'm on the hunt for an SAS EE guy, thought you guys might appreciate these. This guy is my original 1975 Toltoys Action Man. This is his getup for this week.

That's superb Mark, great to see an original. Two more sets arrived yesterday.................

oooooooooh I'm no good and weak willed. Ended up buying loads yesterday.

Managed to mix and match outfits and figures too for the same prices to give me the best combo

ended up with...

Figures:
EE SAS Trooper
EE Soldier
EE Talking Commander
EE Cowboy
EE Indian
GH Sailor
GH Adventurer

outfits:
Blues & Royals + breast plate - really lucky getting this, sold out in most places.
Argyll - same for this one too.
Mountie and Dog
Panzer Captain
Artic Adventurer

now up to 12 and need to find space for them

doh!

The main reason I am sticking to AF is that they don't take up as much space. One AM vehicle and you're stuffed

Nice scores Dave, I think I'll nab a SAS guy, tho the parachute/SAS trooper combo sounds like the way to go to me.

THe SAS combo is great Mark you'll reallly enjoy it.

My other two sets are the Helicopter pilot and Battle of Britian Combo (that's my RAF side satisfied!) and the red Devil and Commander combo.

I think you are right Paul, around $100au landed from the UK via ebay. Its the best of the best imo. I REALLY want to do a Chopper custom.

One old uniform I have is the Luftwaffe pilot. Missing the goggles and pants tho. The scarf my VAM is wearing is from that outfit. Really annoyed at loosing those bits. We didn't get the same uniforms when I was a lad, but when I saw that Luftwaffe uniform I grabbed it. I also have the Jungle soldier outfit, which I think was slightly different to the Palitoy packaging.

I've been watching for bargains for a while, to complete existing uniforms. In retrospect its good to know I got a heap of use out of the guy when I was a kid.

Indiana, my friend, compared to me you have the stamina of a lion!

This arrived on Friday.

The complete £2.2K set. Tried to resist, honestly, just couldn't.....

OMG !

does that mean an action force custom for each one then ?

HAH!

No Andy, although it will lead to few new smaller customs.



I'm not going to keep it all, there's just no room, I haven't the cash, and I don't actually want a fair bit of it. Stuff like the footballers, cowboys and indians, etc don't really interest me.

I'll be keeping at the very most a 1/4 of it and ebaying about 3/4 of it to get some money back.

Which leads to me to....

If anyone is planning on buying any more AM stuff, send me a pm and maybe you could buy it from me if its something that I don't want to keep.

I'll do the same price as Modellors Loft, but cheaper postage so you'll save a couple of quid. Man, deal of the century heh!
