| For those that have been chatting with me on the Chat Box and have been following my threads, you will know I have been struggling with rebuilding my childhood Action Man. But, now he's back, suddenly everything has come together and he looks fantastic...better than ever...  I never thought he'd turn out so good looking, after dragging him out of his tatty old biscuit tin only to find him all broken and with one leg hanging off...it was heart breaking  He is the original and the best and is now fit to lead his team! The real London boy dressed in his urban camouflage and ready to tear it up!   _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man? Well, he lives life victoriously!

| Looking very good. Urban camo's in London. Now what part of London is this? I'm guessing it's probably not Kensington and Chelsea lol

Mark The thing is it might be Kensington and Chelsea. The plan is to do some photos of him on location in various parts of London, but I have to learn forced perspective first. I'll be driving through there this coming Saturday morning, I might give it a first try...  _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man? Well, he lives life victoriously!

| After the photo shoot, Tom K met his new buddy from over the pond for the first time...they live in different places you see... Here's Tom K shaking hands with little Hayato, the Gi Joe Man of Asia...  They chatted for a while...  Then had a quick pose together...  I think Tom K's been asking Hayato if he'd be interested in staying down in London to kick up some fuss with him, not sure what the outcome of that conversation was, but he'd have to get kitted out in urban camouflage as well...so watch this space...I just say, more money...  _________________ RalphMe?

Many thanks! That means a lot! The outfit wasn't planned, it all just came together when SKJ's guys gave Tom K that uniform set. I just added in the Action Man parts to make it more Action Man looking...I posed him, as usual, at 'Bedside Cabinet Studios' and the missus did the snaps with her huge camera; it all worked out very well! And that hair, well what can I say? _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man? Well, he lives life victoriously! See my photos @ Flickr | |

| Tom K has been helping me sort through my 'for trade/sell box' and found this...he said " is this the best you could do while I've been away?" He then kicked it into the trash can in disgust...  _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man? Well, he lives life victoriously! See my photos @ Flickr | |

| Great pic!..and Tom is right, those little figures were part of what caused the demise of 12inch. Chuck him in the bin!! _________________ Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. | |

| A pack of boots came in the post today - many thanks to Ade - which meant that Tom K's motley crew could at least get dressed up in some spare overalls I have without having to go bare foot bohemian! Not sure what Tom is going to do with this bunch of ugly sods though...  _________________ RalphMe? Well, I live life vicariously! My Action Man? Well, he lives life victoriously!
