Well, my lunch break was spent reattaching heads to my Action Men, and building viking lego, getting me some very funny looks in the office. Nicely kitted out in SAS & Bazooka outfits, with Snow Job (tee he) to finish off tonight.

My orange diver suit jacket is beyond repair. My attempts to open the zip alone resulted in it disintegrating in my hands, so it's in the bin. Repro orange diver suit will have to have to be purchased and have it's jacket nicked I think!

Its gut wrenching when that happens. I have a couple of my favourite (O'Reilly's law) uniforms that have holes in them. Also a balaclava in the same boat as your jacket.

Top notch guys,AM is perfect for turning into AF/Joe.I have got my Snow Job nearly done just need to find the ski stuff(which may take a long while!) just wish they would of done a Tom Stone or even a few of the rarer vehicles.

Just to point out that the 40th hands are'nt the same as the vintage the rubber is a lot tougher and you'll have trouble getting them to hold modern weapons,on the other hand they will last a helluva lot longer than the vintage.

Ther is a vintage lot on ebay at the moment, the price was reasonable too. If I find the link I'll post it (at work just coming off nights)

I agree Tom Stone would have been good.
