Agent S
All England, eh? Well, who could possibly personify the very concept of England in its glory days more than Agent S, aka Sindy... now featuring gun hands!
As a recent conversation stream on another (extremely uptight, stodgy, and not very fun) forum suggested, "gun hands" are one of the primary differentiating traits between mere dolls and action figures. In that regard, then, Agent S is a fully qualified action figure!
Besides, this is the Photo-Story topic, so anything goes. As Agent S could tell you, a familiarity with the technicalities of the law is essential knowledge for any agent.
Name: Sindy Code name: Agent S Organisation: CLASSIFIED Qualifying attributes: veddy veddy English, "gun hands," and a long and respected Pedigree (see what she did, there? She's smart, clever, and witty!) Weapon of choice: the one she's pointing at her foes; and you do not even want to know what she has in that handbag! Super-secret stealth skill: a killer side-eye glance! Preferred cocktail: Molotov
It's Mashed Potato Time!
Favourite dance: The Mashed Potato

1. All these "cousins" crack me up! K-Troop has cousins! Stahltruppe has cousins! Dr. Evil's household is almost entirely cousins! I don't know why the concept strikes me as being so funny. Probably a result of watching reruns of The Patty Duke Show on TV when I was a kid.
And a German soldier hiding in the bushes muttering "very interesting" will elicit a chuckle from me every single time!
2. This second page is tailored specifically for a certain member of a certain forum, isn't it?
3. They're not going to steal the Vulcan, they're going to win the Vulcan, fair and square! Or... well, they're planning to win it, anyway!
Of course... the Doctors Evil might be a little bit confused as to the limits on the prize.
I thought the "cake" part might have confused her, seeing as how English is her third language and all.
4. Enquiring Minds Want to Know!
This is turning in to a slapstick farce along the lines of The Great Race or, more accurately, Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines.
5. Eagle-eyed Evils!
Of course, with peepers the size of cantaloupes (I'm talking about the eyes of the Evils ), it would follow that they have fairly acute vision.

Only a few members here will get the joke.

Call it a shot across the bow.

Steal is such an ugly word. They were going to "commandeer" it.

They're confused about a lot of things.

The number of people who will understand those references is roughly the same as the ones who will understand the "Laugh In" Reference." On the other hand, those that do, clearly lived through the most culturally significant decade of the post-WWII era.

I am curious to know if BAM HQ or maybe Dr. X will be sending contestants.

I am hoping CHIP-HQ will maybe send some journalists to cover the proceedings... and maybe raise some hob while they’re at it.
RT-HQ has been flying under the radar for a while. This would be a fine opportunity for some of those agents to socialize.
Jason of Spy Command has been quiet lately. They wouldn’t want to miss this shindig!
Team Australia is firmly grounded in the era of interest. Perhaps they will send a contingent so this party can really get started!

Oh my agent doesn’t have a Favorite cocktail because he doesn’t drink cocktails or anything alcohol related to the slightest . He’s a soft drink kind guy.

Very funny. BTW, the M3 SMG is a much better gun than the Sten which was a real piece of crap. US tank crews carried them into the 90's. Still, when compared to an M16 with all the bells and whistles, it's not that great.

This is SO FUNNY! "Something called Spy Island... whatever that is!" Zona is too young to have a clue about any of the references that Bond-Fleming and the other relics are making! What a hilarious (and realistic) angle from which to approach this little game!
And Captain Action! Now we know where he's been hiding himself for all these decades; drowning his sorrows in Atomic Ale and reminiscing about the glory days - 1966-1968!
But he's still got the old reflexes, so maybe there's hope for the old timer yet! Although getting punched straight out of his boots doesn't bode well, but at least he's still flexible! Great action scenes!
(For the kids in the audience who may be too young to remember, Doctor Evil, who appeared earlier, was the arch-nemesis of IDEAL Toy Company's Captain Action in the mid-1960s.)
This is brilliantly funny!
