Hi Kris!! Welcome to bftb.

Yes, those guides were produced by Jim, but not sure if he has any left, or if the print run ever got to complete at 10. Could be worth dropping him a PM - he's the Baron on here.

Welcome to the site!

I'm afraid the 300-page guide book has been shelved for now, I just don't have the time to do it justice. I'm thinking of opening it up as a group submissions project through the forum, but we'll have to see how that pans out.

The 10-volume Battle Action Force (B&W) books are available here: viewtopic.php?f=134&t=13684 The Colouring Project remains unfinished, sadly.

You should definitely track down a Roboskull!

Here's a pic of my small collection so far. I was mistaken about which toyline name the Headquarters I was from. As you can see it's the chipboard Action Man Headqurters. It's missing a few pieces with a couple of broken parts as well but it's still pretty cool.

Looking good, some nice kit to start with.
Let me tell you, Gunner La-De-Dah Graham, the British Army can fight anything! Intimate or not!

Small but perfectly formed. I've been saying that to women for years and it has served me well :)

Great to see a complete Sealion, it's a shame it often gets overlooked while the Roboskull gets all the kudos.
More news, as its made, from new Action Force!

Not mistaken at all Kris - the cardboard base is action force - it's series 1 - "action man in miniature" era!

Looking good so far mate! A heavy sea lion influence!!
