There is a lad on facebook, dont know if he posts here, but he is a Topps artist and prominent at Echo Live and on the Facebook groups. He was identifying repros, but dont know if he still is. Some of you know who i am on about, but wont print his name. All around nice bloke.

Another photo of the window style box.

Thanks. Tsukuda bought the rights to sell Action Man from Palitoy in 1984. Tsukuda used the 1978 Eagle Eye body and its own uniforms. There are fhree types: Green Beret, USMarine, and German paratrooper. They come boxed and the uniforms were also released on cards. Hard to find now. The German...

Picked up this Tsukuda Action Man. Lots of history with Palitoy, this one.

Thanks for sharing the photos. Love the Palitoy Christmas jumper.

I remember Barnaby's or Barnby's. The price tag was on the box of one of my Cherilea Action Man boxes before I sold it. We lived in Rugby and my mum would take me to Cov sometimes. I remember mum buying me the Batman with magnets on his hands and feet.

It is hard to remember exactly. I think i may have been something like this: Very early days of Matchbox and Corgi and then Mego superhero figures, and Action Man. And the small plastic soldiers. Star Wars. Action Force MOTU Transformers and MUSCLE I got into NFL in 1986 and that was pretty...

I sold most of my fully articulated Action Force figures and vehicles...reluctantly. Kept tje 5POA Action Force though. Dont have tje same semtiment as star wars but good figures nonetheless.

Looks good. Great to see Joe from Leicester Vintage on there. Nice bloke.

I love the first book. Got mine a couple of years ago for a tenner from tje NEC toy fair.

Always a great fair. Never used to come away empty handed.

Looks like you've got a Transformers rocket amongst the Action Force stuff and the mortar and flame thrower from A-Team. The silver weapons are from some Britain's figures. Very generous of you.

Great stuff as always, Lars.

I like to see stickers on a card. However, it can put me off buying a card/MOC if the sticker covers the face of the photo. Saying that, I'd never remove it and agree it adds history.

Pm'd.

I thought it was enjoyable overall. They filled in all the necessary bits like meeting Chewbacca, Lando, winning the Falcon, etc. However, I felt like I didn't find out as much about the character as I would have liked. I didn't like Lando's femenist robot with the Captain Phasma voice...

Yeah, I get that too. I watched the double bill of star wars and empire at the thatre when I was about 7. When I was a kid I think ROTJ was my favourite, mainly down to the Jabba scenes. Star Wars fascinated me too as it was an introduction to the characters and the Tatooine sets were great...

Quite common in collectors shops in Tokyo. There's usually four sometimes five cases in a stack. They vary in price according to the best viewing position. For example, a case at the bottom would be the cheapest and one at about chest height would be more expensive to rent.

They are I'm afraid. I have bought there before and the stickers do come off easily, but nonetheless would prefer them not to put the stickers on at all.

The last lot of photos are taken from there. The first lot from a shopping centre called Nakano Broadway. The second from shops in Akihabara and Ueno. The shops are Robot Robot, Toy Yamashiroya, and Mandrake is the first.
