I'm forwarding this to the Action Man editor, but we don't have the license, we're just helping do a few comics for Hasbro on a custom basis.

Well at least its something, at least hasbro is trying to do something. Still wish we could get a miniseries or something

These are obviously designed after the toys that were shown at Toy Fair, I dont know how official they are but interesting

I wish I could get a nice one of Natalie and Knuck along with RED WOLF and FLYNT though

Thanks for these tidbits of information, Jamar. I'll take anything I can get. Shame that Hasbro US and UK weren't helpful when we emailed them. There MUST be something in the works with the toys shown at Toy Fair and this comics news.
Per the article:
"The comics will appear in the packaging for the toys set to hit soon."

I guess we wait and see.

Art page is still there but it just says action man now and doesnt say much info

this guy isnt talking much or in plain english hahaha but its obviously something to do with the ACTION MAN stuff we saw at ToyFair and the recent news on the comics

Hmm...

That translates into:

ARTLAND is a community of artists where I participate. There are activities, the news, supplies of work, impressive artists and coverall very good atmosphere you do not doubt more to it and enters here:

Our very own jcast posted this over at Action Man HQ concerning the new AM toys sighted in Mexico!:

Sooo... does this mean that these will NOT be available in the UK or US, at least not right away?

A lot of these seem to be rehashes but that's okay since most of them are rehashes of figures I didn't get last time XD
