I think just the first wave but I want this to be a long term project so I'll see what comes along :-) I definately want detonator which I believe was US only??

I think it was sold in the U.K., I certainly got mine from a U.K. ebay seller.

I hope so, makes it a bit easier to obtain! I have a couple of the euro poster/instruction sheets, on the detonator pic it says "not available in the UK"

Can I just ask, what kind of price should I be paying for assault systems?

Tidal blast, depth charger, hornet, sky bolt & detonator ? (Loose rather than boxed)

It was so long ago now, & from so many different sources, I can't remember any exact prices I'm afraid.
I do remember paying just over a ton for a job lot once, about 6 or so years ago, but it had the majority of the whole set included & was cheaper than buying the individual pieces to complete the bits I already had.

Just Depth Charger to go now, the last one I saw @ a toy fair was around £50-£60 M.I.S.B. but I'd prefer a nice loose one (+ Max Ray for it) to be able to play with.

Detonator is nice &, once assembled, is Massive!

Haha! I'm the muppet that just won a depth charger on eBay for £60 (loose) And the worse thing is he offered it to me for £45 out of eBay! I need to get to some decent toy fairs:-)

:oops: sorry 'bout the double post there.

I must add that price was over a year or go, did that price include a figure?

Here you go, just as encouragement purposes ;) , here's my Detonator:

Nope, not even a figure :-( it does look like its never been played with though. Ah well, I'm very good at giving people waay too much money!

That detonator looks amazing! The 3 heavy power suits all look pretty sweet, I still love wild weasel though! It blew me away as a kid!
