Another Atomic Man Rarity? ;-)

Guest

Hi guys,
I just spotted this on evilbay 40th Anniversary Action Man Atomic Man now since as far as I know Atomic Man was never part of the 40th Anniversary series so I sent the seller the following;

Quote :: Dear shrek1961,

Thanks

Alan

So I replied

Quote :: Dear shrek1961,

Rather Misleading Description then isn't it?

Lol. Wonder what he was trying to achieve.

Oh Blimmey technology. How do you imbed (is that the right phrase) links. I'm such a dinosaur.

Probably hoping that putting "40th Anniversary" in the title as well would generate more search hits.

As for embedding links in the edit window click the Insert/Modify Link Icon it looks like a couple of chain links (to the left of the YouTube icon). Then enter the URL in the first box and the text you want to become the link into the second box and click the Insert button. Job Done! Very Happy

I went back and added the Red Colour later to make the link more obvious! Wink

It looks to me as if he has on motorway maintenance outfit too scratch

Yeah you're right Dal! I'd never looked closely enough at the catalogue pics to realise the HH outfit had a diagonal zip like the Atomic Man coverall. So you learn something new every day! Wink

Same overalls you may think but Atomic man has a black overall and Highway Hazzard is blue but both with diagonal zip Smile

Yes Sorry Dan,
I didn't explain that very well! Since the Highway Hazard set has never interested me I've never paid it much attention or looked closely at the catalogue pics. The few times I've had blue diagonal zip coveralls I just assumed they were colour variations on Atomic Man Coveralls! affraid
