i've not got much in the way of room anymore i seem to of amassed a lot of toys that aren't action force. still i can't wait i've not had an action man since i was about 8 years old and the action force really took over...brilliant.
i don't know where this will go to be honest, i'd like to get maybe half a dozen but no more, but never say never. as for transformers i already possess a fewSteveD wrote:There you again TKW - flaunting your money about some sort of fancy Dan big shot.

When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Re: i finally gave up.
Did the same thing myself this week and bought an Action Soldier with Australian Jungle Fighter outfit; there is also a Footballer and another vanilla Action Soldier on the way. I will certainly be picking a few more up but some of them already seem to be going for more than what I am willing to pay at the moment : (

Re: i finally gave up.

Re: i finally gave up.
Are folks meaning 40 th Anniversary ones are going for higher prices? They've still got loads in Modelzone near me, so I could always toddle along and see what they have if stuff is proving hard to get.
Last time I was in I was this close ( ) to buying a spacesuited one (that's very close) until my missus pointed he looked like "he's wrapped in tin foil" so I put him back. Wish I'd got him now though, so may well pop back.
