leave it red, have a white cammo net to cover it while on snow patrol, and a green one to cover it while on swamp patrol

Shadowski sounds cooool

Would Action Man Ski Patrol skis be too small?

There's nothing too crazy to imagine, Andy. Well, maybe there is, but we haven'0t found it yet ;-)

Mate if you are doing an AF5 for SFS then I think the Zargonite idea for the Shadowtrak is definetley the best. Maybe have a look at some other vintage Action Man vehicles for ideas. Another idea for the Zargonite ship I thought that maybe you could add armed solar powered wind surfing vehicles? Imagine 2 or 3 armed to the teeth screaming through space to attack. The hero of the story in Disney's Treasure planet has one although its not armed.

I think some 20inch chromed up wheels with spinners, two 24 inch subs with passive crossovers mounted transversely on the back deck, a PC/DVD player installed in the dashboard and a fish tank in the glove box would seem appropriate mate?

Or have I just been watching Pimp My Ride too much?

Oh yeah, and a white Vicars son who thinks he's black excitedly jumping around when the work is finished, turning a blind eye to the fact that they've done bugger all work to the engine, despite it being a clapped out piece of sh*t.

I'll stop now...

Nothing as outlandished as apimped up 'trak, but what about converting a Cosmic Cruiser into a Shadow Cruiser?

The Black Major could be onto something here Andy. Maybe leave the wheels off find some way of enclosing the back with maybe some clear perspex or something else similiar and adapt the Shadowtrak to be a Zargonite Cosmic Cruiser the way Palitoy might of.
