I didn't know there was an Eagle/AF connection, but I'm not very 'in the know' on the comics side [despite LOVING them as a kid].
Now my mind might be playing tricks, but I'm sure that there's a near complete collection of Eagles for sale in a second hand shop in Cardiff. It might not be Eagle, but that's what I seem to remember.
If its of any use, I can nip over there and see what's what.
On a related note, though not in Mr Dawson's league [or Snakeeyes' toy shop find], I went to my first ever proper carboot last week. And I got....
He-Man Skeletron figure for 50p.
And.....
A Mint-On-Card Muton for a pound!
Delighted with the Muton! My heart started going nuts when I spotted it as I thought there might be a hidden trove of AF stacked in the guy's boot. Alas, nothing, but still made my day!
