Always trying to blend (or blur) the line between Series 1 AF and Action Man I finally finished a couple of these off.

Will tidy them up a bit more when I'm a bit more awake.

Awesome stuff,really well done. And a great idea.

Always wanted some way of reconciling Series 1 with AF proper. I thought it might be a sort of 'proto-AF' maybe based WWII to late 70s when the terrorist threat became so big after Ironblood that there was a need for a unified force. But the inclusion of a WWII German Stormtrooper kinda argues against that, unless you consider the French resistance to be a terrorist organisation (one man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist, etc.).

Anyway, great work my antipodean amigo

I'll dig up the story I did, when I can find it. Basically the Baron grew up in South America after the war, living with Nazi refugee's. That's how "Death in South America" came about. ;-)

It's something that has always sort of bothered me. It's like Series 1 really had no storyline behind them, and no real link to Series 2 and beyond. It's like they were a different toyline really!

It's never particularly bothered me, I adore the series 1 simply for being smaller versions of V.A.M.
I know it was never on the cards but I think :originalaf: :frogman: & :deepsea: could of led into many other possible, civilian themed, avenues much like Fisher Prices' Adventure People toys.
