MAM climbing challenge.

This afternoon Matthew, my son, and I took our dogs out for a walk.  I remembered a spot on top of a nearby hill which I thought would make a good photo shoot so we packed two rucksacks with our MAM and headed off to take some pictures.  Embarrassingly, I think some of his pictures are better than mine!  What do you guys think?

Here's my pictures:


(I was thinking of making it like a little documentary but changed my mind).

(Note Matthew's head at the top of the pic - oops!)

And here's Matthew's pictures.  The last two are my favourites.










What do you guys think?

great pics both sets

Fantastic climbing photos!   

yep his are better than yours ! ........only joking both sets are great  

Awwww it's all ways nice that you can share your Action Man hobby with someone else that you love. and even beta it's going out for a walk getting fresh air and of course taking Action Man photos . The spot on top of a nearby hill which you thought would make a good photo shoot looked a fantastic place, never be embarrassed about how your Action Man pictures turn out. What do you guys think? Well Peter I think you and your son Matthew pictures are both really really outstanding.

Thanks for all the comments guys. Matthew is very pleased with the feedback!

Great pictures my friend. Well done to the both of you.
There is nothing quite like taking AM outdoors whether they are vintage or modern. The feeling it can give in capturing that one perfect photo is so worth the effort of it all. I think we all should experience it every once in a while. It's the closest we get as adults to play time again. I envy Matthew somewhat there , For only a child has the innocence to truly play.
Well done Matthew for you're great AM uploads.

Excellent photos, Pete! You've kitted out your MAM climbers very well!    

superb Pete   

Some real cracker photos,well posed and lovely scenery   

It is nice that you and your son can share a hobby like that and enjoy spending some time together outside. Your photos both look great some nice clear action shots and views and some great outfits particularly like the outfit and face on the first figure in the orange jacket, is the guy interviewing him one of the newer headsculpts?

The guy with the orange jacket is a 90's head that we painted a beard on, and the guy with the camera is one of the newer heads on a 1993 blue pants body (my favourite MAM body) but I'm not sure what year he was from. It's possibly the Global Mission which came out in 2010.

Wow thta's cool the beardy looks really good, and those are the newer figures I was thinking of, obviously it's hard to tell from the angle you've captured them but, it has that look of the new head sculpt, it's great if you've managed to swpa it onto one of the more poseable bodies that's what you really want I reckon at least
