I remember Christmas 1980 I was 10 years old and my brother who was 20  took to to the local toy shop and said I could have anything I wanted. Oh boy, how could I choose? It was rammed full of Action Man stuff. Then my eye fell on one of these.....

Hermes delivery service did there best to destroy the box. It was crushed and had holes in it but again my brother came to the rescue and restored it for me Smile

Good old Hermes strikes again!  lol! 

Very nice Vee-hickle Mark and it's always great to get a toy from childhood back!

I got a very battered snow cat in a job lot a while ago but I'm still undecided what to do with it.

Thanks Steve. I was absolutely gutted when I saw the results of Hermes. My brother did a great job on the box and it felt a little odd when he gave this one to me 34 years later.

Have you got the screen, etc with yours? Damo made some fantastic transfers for the one I had previously. Smile

Hey youngster, in 1980 I'd been out working for 3 years! So, I missed all of the later Action Man stuff, I wish I'd had this though, back in the day... Very Happy
