I’ve been looking for a Dynaman for some time; and recently picked up this fellow. I’d gotten a spare SAS beret from Cotswold and this figure looked tough enough for special type missions. Along with the Cotswold beret, he has action man duffel coat, trousers and sterling SMG, Gi Joe battledress jacket and KO boots.
As he arrived:

Interesting figure. I've never heard of Dynaman until now. That's an impressively rugged face sculpt!
Congratulations on the find, and on outfitting him so well!
Are these figures somewhat uncommon?

They pop up now and again in Europe; but they’re very uncommon over here.

Dynaman or adventure man was made by Barter Toys in the 1970s. The bodies are almost 12” versions of the Mego body of the time. Decent outfits; and they had female figures (“Dynagirl”) with outfits as well. These were made to compete with the Action Team and Group Action Joe female releases from the same time.

I've heard of Dynaman and Dynagirl, and had occasionally seen photos of Dynaman. This is the first time I have seen a photo of Dynagirl.
Thanks for sharing Nate.

Decided to put my Dynaman in some different threads. Uniform and t-shirt are Soldiers of the World; boots are 40th Hasbro; webbelt is vintage Action man.
In garrison attire:
Duffel coat for the cold winter temperatures:
