Re: Toy Fairs

Bomber is thta the fairs run by SRP Toy Fairs? As they do the rounds of the South East, including Orpington as well. They are a bit hit and miss though.

Re: Toy Fairs

Was shocked to find out a few weeks back that there is a toy fair held regularly at the local school next to my Doctor's surgery. At the time the missus was still in hopsital, so the sprog and me went to check it out (The first toy fair I'd been to in about 8 years!). Surprisingly there was a stall ...

Re: Memories as a kid

My memories include not liking the original line of Action Force apart from the SAS who were always the best. That all changed when an American family moved into the same road as me and he brought with him his American GI Joes and more importantly his Cobra's. They just seemed so much better than ...

NO!!!!! I mean come on, at the end of the day these comics were ...

Re: Memories as a kid

I guess like many of you I got into AF during the dying days of the original Star Wars toys, as lets be honest, Transformers were expensive things best suited for B'days and Xmas (You weren't going to get Optimus Prime just for not screeching at the dentist) and you need something around the pocket ...

Captain Zargon Question

My Captain Zargon figure was bought naked in 1997 at a car boot sale for 50p (at the same car boot sale I remember seeing a red Cobra Commander figure, which of course I now know to be Red Laser, something which at the time I had never seen before and completely neglected to buy...if only I'd known ...
