UK designs

Just curious, how many of the Action Force vehicle designs were UK exclusives? Were any of them ever released in the US?

All the original figures and "Star Wars" style figures were original, I believe.
Original vehicles:
Early: AF-3, AF-5, AF-7, AF-9
Q Force - Stingray, Swordfish, Sealion
Z Force - Jeep
SAS Force - None
Space Force - Cosmic Cruiser, Satellite Defence, Triad Fighter
Red Shadows - Roboskull, Shadowtrak

I think that's all of them. Note that I am not counting accessories that came with figures, such as the Q Force Sea Skimmer. Cobra and later AF used some of these vehicles; to my knowledge, none of them have ever been in the US GI Joe line.

Thankyou. I suppose technically we can add the ATC too as the interior was a variant. I know that the Roboskull, Sealion and Triad survived to the Cobra era of Action Force, I'm guessing they weren't released Stateside either. So are these exculsive vehicle designs sought in the same way as the variant figure repaints?

if ATC is the troop carrier one then ya that was different . It was better in my opinion than the US version

the UK version could be used as a base a medical center a loaded weapon and a troop carrier

much better and more usage
