much as most of you will hate me for saying it, i think the only way of making this really work would be making it a g.i. joe con heavily featuring action force, or a joe/af con. just my opinion, but if you wanna pull numbers...... also more chance of good press coverage.
i know the point is having an af con, but sometimes you need to take advantage of the band wagon!

Yeah, I suppose GI Joe UK is the way to go, unless the movie chokes...

it'll depend on how well the movie merchandise does also, if the youngsters buy it then the possibility is there for numbers to show,

Blood For The Baron Dot CON! Tee-hee-hee!
If it's going to be us mostly, I'd like Action Force Con, we know what's what... but if you're hoping to attract the kids, you might need to slide the name "Joe" in there somewhere...

To be honest, I was actually thinking of a non toy title that can be incorporated into a logo/ advert and use the brand names as a sub-heading
i.e. something like
Roll Call
The Action Man, Action Force & GI Joe Toy Collectors Show.
Report For Duty (RFD09)
The Action Man, Action Force & GI Joe Toy Collectors Show.
either of these can use an 'Uncle Sam Wants You' style image, but using AM/ AF etc
I think 'International Heroes' would actually work quite well too, as it can be applied in varing levels to the lines.
just a thought anyway.
nearly at 1,000

Hmmm, not sure where I heard it, but you always use the battlecry "Blood For The Baron"...

You could try:
Action Stations!
The Action Force, GI Joe and Action Man Convention
See the use of an exclamation mark makes it hip and down with the kids while still keeping the connection with two of the lines titles.
Fighting for Freedom
The Action Force, GI Joe and Action Man Convention
