I can only recall and have only seen on YouTube the Palitoy Action Force News flash advert, were there any others back in the day?

There was an advert for the first series of figures, set in a small toy shop.

The owner, who I think isn't Bernard Cribbins but at the time reminded me of him, was serving a young lad at the counter, suggesting which figure he might like, with phrases like "How about a Desert Rat? ...Or maybe a Royal Marines Commando!"

I've tried finding the advert on youtube and the like by sitting through general batches of commercial breaks from the time but no luck yet.

Hi,
Here's a link to a French :AFLogo: advert, apart from the language, it's exactly the same as the one shown in the U.K.

The television adverts were shown as part of Mr Tree's presentation @ last years R.O.R.C, if you can make it this year he may well how them again, & I believe some stills have been on the 'Full Force' podcasts show notes facebook page?
