Blood for the Baron!

This might be a good sign. There is a Modern Action Man display at the US toyfair.

Pics are posted at TNI and ASMzine.

Notice that two of the figs have a VAM logo on them.


this is good news but I cant find any info on it anywhere other than the pictures in the links above,


will it be released in the US ? in the past AM things were shown at the US toyfair but not available in the US so will it be in the UK? US? and we got to have some kind of support for this thing, A comic? a cartoon?

something anything really LOL

they should at least take the MEXICAN EXCLUSIVE CGI MOVIE put english to it then along with ROBOT ATAK and X-missions movies, release them with the toys in the US.

Well that is if the toys are to be released in the US, but those 3 movies are actually a trilogy and have never been released in the US. Seems like a missed opportunity by hasbro

any info is appreciated

As soon as I saw these pics when they first went up I knew I wanted some of these. The vehicles look top-notch, and while some of the figures look like rehashes, I wouln't mind getting some of them.

Yes, if anyone has ANY information on these, whether they are to be released only in the UK or otherwise, let us know please!

Well today Hasbro UK has updated thier ACTION MAN site , ( yesterday it was still ATOM stuff which hadnt been updated in about a years time )
not much there but its totally new and you can see lots of the stuff that was at Toy Fair

fun little game with videos and such

I sent them an e-mail too asking them for more info

Thanks for the update! You know, that ATOM cartoon was pretty fun to watch too! Glad the website's finally updated with the 12" AM though! The wallpapers are awesome! One knit-pick though, the upper torsos on all of the new figures have molded clothing. Still look nice but...

I'll do the same. Maybe if they hear from enough non-UKers they will eventually decide to bring AM back to this side of the pond.

Edit: Just emailed them. I'll pass along their response here when it arrives.

Hasbro UK is usesless! LOL which makes no sense because they have the site up with all the new stuff LOL

in anycase the US site is working now too, its just a mirror site with the same exact info

Dear sir or mam,

Will the new 12" Action Man products shown on this website be available at retail in the United States?

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Chris ******

Not much help, are they?

ya none at all, its weird you got to the trouble of putting it on your website BOTH US AND UK and then you even show it at toy fair but you have no plans! argggghhhhh

I really really think they should have included Action Man in the GI JOE MOVIE like originally proposed and written

too bad

I think what they need to do is either do ACTION MAN in the new 25th anniversary joe design or take the sigma six design and use that

12 inch is dead and boys do not like dolls of this kind anymore

Well this is interesting
