Re: Hello, all ....
Yes that is an excellent idea and agree that any repro items should be cast in alternate shades. Having re-bought a few Star Wars figures recently to fill gaps in my childhood collection, I found the issue of repro weapons frustrating. It seems Action Force isn't plagued with this problem at the moment, which is good.Thundershot wrote:Hi.

Hi Reigate dave! And welcome aboard! I was just looking at your website yesterday after jamars news about dela and Arthur. Nice work. I'd agree with baron about choices for figure parts to a certain extent, but I definitely think for mass appeal the devils due characters are thr best place to start.
How do you male your items? Is it condention cure with mixed two part resins? (I do the heads for the store and some other bits and bobs). I'd suspect that little pistol to be very fiddly to do though! I've tkept meaning to try, but fear it may be one for injection moulding.
Look forward to seeing more tri-gate creations!

Personally, I'd love to see every straight-arm fig reproduced as a jointed character! I'd start with the five 1983 team leaders; Baron Ironblood, Eagle, Skip, Sky Raider and Leviathan.
Hi Dave,
Personally, I would love to see 'proper' Action Force figures with straight arms and legs like in Series 1 and 2.
Are you able to make these, or is it just jointed-Joe type figures?
I would have thought stiff-limbed figures would be easier and cheaper to make?
No end of characters/variations to choose from. Characters from the Battle Action Force comic, many ideas from the Customs archive here on the site.
Dave Tree told me that there were concepts for unreleased Red Shadow figures such as a Red Shadow Commander and a CAT-Woman type Shadow baddie. They would be great to see cast.
Then there's the S.W.S. figures.... I know your in copyright territory, but a small run of a hundred wouldn't get much more than a 'cease and desist' email at best and by then all whoever wanted to buy them would have done so....
Just my thoughts....
Cheers anyways,

Re: Hello, all ....
I think the straight limb idea would be fun for a few members here but it wouldnt be a great seller to the overall market, so Im not sure straight limb would warrant enough interest in him doing so
making them 25th construction will attract more buyers, outside of this forum .
as for the unreleased stuff! thats the first I have heard of it! man have you guys been holding out on me on great info!!!!
man I want to see sh*t like that!

Its the usual quarells....
Dave is asking what people on this forum would like.
I would like - surprise! - some Action Force type figures. Sorry if that offends anyone....


I have no interest in 25th figures at all and I am not the only one.

I like the 25th construction and would like to see parts made for it.

Re: Hello, all ....
I can do everything other than arms guys! They need gluing together and a bit of filler down the sides, but if you want to army build it might help? Or saves hacking originals for customs. It was a sort of aborted project from a year or so ago!Andy1672 wrote:Would be nice to see some Palitoy Shadow bodyparts cast in red for army building
