I still am interested in the "history" of the dude. When I first found this site, I knew nothing about the B.A.F. history, and only the Marvel run. I am so glad that I found out about B.A.F. and all that entailed! I would just hate to refuse to see if there is anything at all offered by the Action Man stuff... :D

well to be honest there isnt a whole lot out there for action man no sites that really stand out like this one does.

but here is one that okay its max steel and action man nothing much there. it has a message board at least . http://www.freewebs.com/demonslayer1983/

Does anyone know if there has ever been a comic book in the last 10 years or so on action man in the current form?

I've been searching high and low and I don't think there has been. I have only seen Action Man "Annuals" and they seem to be kids' books, not comics...

I have no idea if there is anything based around modern action man, not my bag, there are some excellent sites for Palitoys vintage action man, I can post links if you like

I love vintage action man but I come here for action force,

there are some neat tie ins between the early Af and action man but apart from facial likeness this was gone before wave 2 of Af was released


with regard to modern action man if you cant find what your after do what steve did and set your own site up.

I thought this for a while though, with Gi Joe, there is a real relationship between 12" and 33/4" scale (a lot of Joe books mention and list both ranges and the 1/8th scale range too) but with action man and Af there is nothing, a lot of collectors of action man I know have never heard of AF, any Action man book apart from a footnote in Alan halls last book rarely mention AF, but the early Af stuff was action man branded
