No Probs Andy

It contains most of the action force which turned into joes but the variants aren't I.e. the lowlight u.k. is a lighter green with china on the back and it does not have tiger force outback amongst others.

It is well worth having though I only use it to get rid of the joes I acumulate while buying action force as I think they start to get stupid later in the 80's so I don't want half a collection IYKWIM.

Yep it's the bellamo book the one I linked to amazon its cheaper :-D

Here's the back cover and index if you copy the photos you can zoom in and have a better idea of how good it really is.

Oh well,
I am just in the middle of setting up some listings on auctiva and was looking at which figure I had in the book and both tomax and xamot in the book are the same pic of xamot :roll:
I had to check it out on yo joe to make certain instead.

So there may be some other errors in the book I don't know if it has been mentioned before on yo joe or anything :-?
