Hello, My name is Kris and i'm a U.S. based collector of several toylines, comics, etc. including Action Force. My main interest is G.I.Joe and any related lines to it or connected with it. I started my A.F. collection years ago, maybe 17 more or less, with a purchase of the Action Force packaged G.I.Joe Sharc with Deep Six. Always loved that toy. Anyways I don't have much yet but i'm working on expanding my Palitoy collection. Right now I currently own the following toys from the Palitoy line - Sharc with Deep six, Qforce Sea Lion with Dolphin, Stingray with Aqua Trooper, Swordfish with Deep sea defender, Action Force Headquarters playset and a incomplete Battle Action Force comic collection.

I have always loved Joe in all it's facets with a true appreciation for the oddities from every era. SuperJoe anyone :) While I may not have grown up with this toyline it has captured my attention with amazing toys like the Sea Lion (which is my favorite so far) the HQ playset and the awesome BAF comics. So I have to say that I really love the B.A.F. comic series with it's unique take on the ARAH characters, the artwork and the fact they were printed on newsprint paper. Favorite storyline so far is Target: Torpedo.

Anyways I hope to make a few friends, develop a few connections and learn as much as possible about this great line of toys.

Hi mate welcome aboard, I'm selling off my Gi Joe collection so let me know if you need anything inparticular. I recommend you get yourself a Roboskull as it is in my opinion the best Action figure vehicle out there alongside the AT-AT. One of our custom guys even crossed the two vehicles once.

Hello there, great introduction and welcome aboard!!

100% agree on the special lure of the Sealion. Great design, totally unique and aged well I think. That reminds me, why don't I own a Roboskull to go with it?

Thanks for the warm greetings. I do have 2 questions for everyone here. 1st was the Blood for the Baron exclusive Battle Action Force complete 10 volume comic set published by the owner of this site? 2nd the same question applies to the BFTB 10th Palitoy 300 page? collector's guide? If so, is Jim still taking orders for any of his product? I would love to own those books.
