Don't know. We know that Hasbro inherited Palitoy's IP rights, but no idea about the actual moulds. More than likely they were donated to the crown when the company was liquidated (see the 'No Man Left Behind' article on the homepage).

Exactly a year ago was the unveiling of Special Weapons Force, most likely it's in that sub-forum.

i'm pretty sure in 1 of the hasbro Q@A sessions they said they had thr rights for AF but NOT the Shads

[The Baron]

Oh wait, those were the original Hasbro moulds I think, not the Palitoy ones.

surely they must have aquired the rights to the Shadows if they are now producing them ?

were the Red Shadows a seperate trade mark to Action Force ?
