Come on then, own up! Who just won this:
Just outbid me. Nice item. I was not sure whether to bid or not as the sticker didn't match the usual.

But then saw the Frogman someone posted here on the forum, which has this type sticker.

Presume this different shorter/smaller label, which is also a different green is an earlier type? These are dated 1982 where as others are date 1984. Presume this smaller type sticker was used for the first wave only. Heres a Ground Assault just sold on ebay (I got outbid!) Would be a piece of piss ...

Nice pics. Yes the metal castings are from the german officer and sailor. This were shown as ideas for the first af wave but didnt make the 10 chosen. The first pic you posted shows the hand painted wax casts that never made it into production. The red figure is indeed a red shadow officer...another...

No none went particularly cheap

aah just saw this is an old thread!

Nice little collection...i love protos!

Do you mean plastic sheet? Early palitoy star wars figures also have plastic sheets behind them. I think its to stop tge figure sticking to the card esp figures with capes.

Thought he looked familiar!

"Gaps in the numbering would be explained by those numbers appearing in other Palitoy toylines (Star Wars, Action Man... er... what else?)"

Tiny Tears, Pippa and Tressy of course!

lol beat me!
