VAM Monopoly

Subject: VAM Monopoly Sat Jun 01, 2013 7:46 am

I saw an ad in a magazine for this website:

http://internationalridicule.co.uk/

Some great sets on there but my first thought was..............what about an Action Man themed set?

I mentioned it on chat and there were some good ideas flying around. I wondered if anyone on here has the ability and equipment to make a set rather than paying someone else to do it? Also would anyone else be interested in having a set?

My first thought was that all the properties would be changed to outfits, the four stations would be four vehicles and jail would be Colditz Castle. Last night Andy (AK615) suggested small pieces like a grenade, dynamite stick and cup as the playing pieces.

All the Community Chest and Chance cards would have to be reworded to an AM theme too.

Any ideas/suggestions welcome, I would also like to incorporate the different figures into the game somehow.

Look forward to seeing what you all come up with.

Yes Richard instead of Jail. It's got to be Colditz with escape from Colditz cards :-)

A bit of a lame idea. There are four types of VAM PH, Flock Head, Hybrid and EE Could be the Stations?

Desert fighter has to be Old Kent Road. Always thought that was a bit cheap of Palitoy lol. So could be republican gaurd and state trooper for mayfair and park lane

Great idea on the Desert fighter as the cheap seats Mark...but surely Mayfair has to be a quality outfit like the Green Beret!

Didn't you once own a GB Steve? Lol I suppose the rep gaurd and state trooper arn't actaully action man so maybe the GB Would be a good idea.

I think the scorpion for electric company and Army Helicopter for the water works

Your are on the loosing side of the war, you need to pay £100.00 for each complete uniform you own and an extra £50.00 if it's carded in war reparations

That could be instead of the mortgage thing that I could never understand as a kid I just knew it was going ro hurt if you landed on it!!

Oh god Richard. I'm going to be awake all night think about this, it really appeals to the OCD/Aspergers side of me.

Lol Mark

Great ideas mate, I think I will make a list of all the sets I want to include.

Also would need to reword the community chest and chance cards to make them AM themed!!!

Quarter master stores ??

What about the pieces. I thought of p/h, flock head, ee, Tom Stone, Bulletman, Atomic man and intruder
the command center as electric company and the vam tent as waterworks

Great choices Phil I've brain washed the kids sooooo much we'd all want to be Tom Stone lol well actually Jemma may settle for The Intruder :-)

That sounds a great idea. I'd certainly like one, although I have a feeling that it could be quite expensive!

House and hotels could be accessory sets.

Think I might sit down and work though the cards...
