Ever seen one of these before?

Me neither, anybody any info?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ACTION-MAN-CONVENTION-1994-LIMITED-ED-ROYAL-MARINE-COMMANDO-FALKLANDS-BOXED-/151084862261?pt=UK_ToysGames_ActionFigures_ActionFigures_JN&hash=item232d5c0b35#ht_9474wt_1137

Interesting, looks like a 30th head sculpt and the hands look like Cotswold grippers and no I haven't seen one like it before.

Winch has explained the history of this figure in another thread somewhere (can't remember which one).

Think winch said it was a cots head sculpt ???

I think its quite badly put together in my opinion I wouldnt want it let alone for that money

Far too expensive for a really badly kitbashed Falklands figure even the box is poorly done

But each to their own  

I'm not sure that's a real figure. The box says 'Action Masks'. I think it's a rip off and someone is trying to get more money for just a basic AM figure.

You'll find the information Cappy has mentioned here I'm still considering giving it a thread of it's own. The figure has been added by the seller as well as the SLR as these weren't included in the original set.

Perhaps a little harsh Dan?  Myself and Barry Pippen were only discussing this item earlier today and it is almost 20 years old now and all hand made it's not just a "kitbash" since all the items were custom made.

I'd like to know more about it Winch, a small stand alone feature would be facinating.

I saw this on Auction but didn't know anything about it lol ..

Looks likes a very cool set!!

Cheers

I think you should give it a thread of its own even if its just to let people know that it was all hand made which of course makes a difference to my comment.

If this was all hand done then you are correct my comments are harsh but theres very little information in the description to go by

Therefore knowing the information now i will retract my comments and instead say "Poor description"

 

Who actually produced these ?

OK I've now created a new thread about the history of this outfit and it's creator or as much as I can presently remember!

Check it out here

I stand corrected! "Action Masks" just sounded like one of the knock off figures from years ago.
