Bob told me the middle sections on the transporter are a mock-up but the aim was that each of the pod's would carry a figure. Bob had a great looking book with him that he'd put together which had a load of cool archive stuff in it. Hope he gets it into print soon!

Me too.
Did you spot, in one of the toy fair dio' pictures, that strange looking
like figure wearing (what appeared to be) red shoulder armour & cape?
I think I pointed it out to Jim.
It was a tiny detail that, when I pointed it out top him & asked, Bob
said he'd not noticed it before & didn't recall what or who it was.

That's all I know, lads. I don't have the photos, only Bob does.

Cannot wait for Bob's book to become available. It's amazing.

I'm still gutted I missed Bob's talk the transport looks like a Space 1999 Eagle ship.

Absolutely, hopefully not so far off as he seems to have a draft ready ...

There was also a design sketch for a
vehicle using this old Action man toy:

It would of had a new
scaled interior, very much along the same lines as the
A.T.C., with medical bay etc.

WOW! Great to see these and looking forward to more revelations. I wonder if that image could be cleaned up at all? I'm guessing Bob's original is pretty faded?
I was looking at AM vehicles to copy and thought about that one maybe using a cut up Hyena? or a big alteration on a Maggot.

This is really exciting stuff. Can we have a thread for just these revelations and tantalising glimpses of what could have been - a Concept Thread or something.
And I know this has been asked before, but who now owns the copyright on the AF figures/vehicles - obviously Mr Brechin owns the drawing, but could he commercially produce a new set of AF stuff from these drawings, and would it be under the AF banner?
filecard stuff too.
