There's the answer to where Boffin was from! If Z Force was refered to as Heavy weapons then "Special Weapons" is Force 5 from series two (may be / perhaps!)
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?

I'll try and get round to scanning a few more of these, but this might be of a little interest, it's a scan of an invoice sent upon purchase of new stock, and nicley shows the wholesale price and the case assortment/ case breakdown.

This is the only Action Force one I have scanned at the moment, when I get a minute, I'll dig them out and scan in some more Action Force invoices,

Enjoy,

Dave.

This is what Palitoy sold to toyshops at.

No mixed cases.
Sold either as 24 or 48 in a case.
£0.92 - £1.04 per figure depending on time of the year.

Vehicle Prices 1983 (number in brackets indicates how many in a case):

If you come across a box Dave I'll glady give you a 10% mark up on the invoice price for your troubles? £1.15 per MOC figure? Go on then, I'll have a couple of hundred....

Although in fairness to Dave he has priced himself as a luxury item for such entry. £6million. Even allowing for inflation that's a damn sight more than Demi Moore was charging back in the day.
