@@georgeaitken2719 Me too!

[@phildalziel8625]

Loved the Z Force stories in 'Battle Action Force'. They usually involved them being caught out in some dire situation in a country where they were isolated and had to fight against the odds. "Desert Strike" with Major Maddi and the jump jet and "Jungle Terror" with the Mamba men...fantastic story writing. Q Force vehicles were awesome looking as well!

[@georgeaitken2719]

Phil Dalziel I still have the comics the 3rd story assault on atoll z they actually fought the red shadows

[@phildalziel8625]

@@georgeaitken2719 Yes! Loved that as well. Black Major and Red Laser really giving Z Force a hard time. They were really up against it. Out of ammo so what do they do? Use the treasure as ammo and repel the Shads! Scout even got shot I think? (He survived but only shown later).

[@georgeaitken2719]

I liked that story I’m surprised they didn’t make a separate action force comic still have my comics loved the sas story operation claymore when baron ironblood invaded the north of scotland

[@alanholifield3725]

Its lovely seeing such emotion on the face of a collector. If i was ever to part with my own collection...it wouldn't be for money. Itll go to the people that love and cherish these great toys

[@stever7066]

Great video. Superb selection received there. The design, quality and attention to detail in the second series AF was never bettered. I was lucky enough to have all those shown as a kid, great memories.

[@georgeaitken2719]

Steve R have to admit second action force had the best vehicles roboskull atc the sealion triad fighter etc

[@MichaelJShaffer]

Simply incredible! What an amazing gift. Here's to hours more content. Thank you, George! I remember you vaguely hinting at another mystery box on one of the livestream chats and have been waiting, anxiously. You do not disappoint, sir! Wow! Tony, other than a few wrinkles, a lower voice, and perhaps a little less hair, your reactions were as close to seeing you as a little kid on Christmas morning. Really cool! So genuine.

[@martinanderson8815]

Your enthusiasm is infectious great gift

[@313cardcollections6]

As an American GI JOE collector , I was never exposed to Action Force and knew nothing of the line until a decade ago. Your channel has opened up a whole new exciting world of action figure collecting, and for me, although I'll never acquire any Action Force toys (unless I find some locally) I like learning about them. I have the US version of the APC and to me it was one of the most practical toy vehicles of the line. I also find the UK versions have so much more features , colors and details which make them so much cooler to me.

[@georgeaitken2719]

313 Card Collections you know it’s possible to swap the interior on these apcs so you could have a gi joe apc with a med bay you can use the stretcher that came with doc

[@313cardcollections6]

@@georgeaitken2719 I'd rather have the total UK version , it's so much cooler. I'll look into it. I already have the stretcher etc. Thanks so much for everything you've done for the hobby! Awesome!

[@georgeaitken2719]

Your in for a treat when you get one funny enough it’s more suited to gi joe figures than action force due to the articulation

WOW! George is too generous. Congratulations Tony, much deserved. Can't wait to see these in up coming videos!!

[@bobastu]

Wow...like wow!! Your humility in this video is why you endear such loyalty and respect. That APC makes a boring canvas top troop carrier into a mobile command center. Very cool haul!

[@georgeaitken2719]

Boba Stu there is a compartment below the turret on the apc which is used for storage

[@bobastu]

@@georgeaitken2719 it seems Palitoy had some pretty ingenious R&D people. Look at the Action Man flocked hair (adopted by Hasbro), the Action Man Kung Fu Grip (adopted by Hasbro), and the Action Man Rolling Eye System (not adopted by Hasbro). Palitoy kept a 12 inch line interesting and in production until the early 80s. Then Action Force, besides being 5POA (some of my fondest memories are playing with Fisher Price Adventure People and Star Wars, both 5POA), the vehicle designs were landmark. If only Hasbro was smart enough to hit the well of Palitoy vehicles through their shared interests and designs. APT on Blood for the Baron site looks incredible. Cannot wait for Tony's review!

[@Stupotskitron]

What another fantastic Action force video! Well done Tony and George!!!

althought most collectors would cringe at what i did to a Z-force APC. i had mine painted red for the red shadows. looks awesome

[@jimkhana007]

I wouldn’t cringe, I’d say well done for being creative... 😁 I could easily see the Red Shadows “liberating” a troop carrier from the Z Force

[@jasondwilliams972]

The ATC is fantastic. I am genuinely happy for you. The only drawback is that I am determined to find one of my own because, in all honesty, I think it looks better than the APC. Old school camo wins me over every time-like Hit & Run...

Yesterday watched some videos of this action figure. Mine comes complete with belt holster pistol badge on beret and dog tag. Really pleased with it. Then came across a Deep water salvage uniform complete still in package unopened. Also got a bag of weapons in silver and finally an action man trunk to store everything in. Then I bought a female figure from star wars force of destiny only thing missing is the weapon blaster. Unboxed Then yesterday I picked up a 12"" Storm Trooper and Finn from the Force of destiny unboxed. So three figures to start me off with Star Wars collection
