Wow - now those are some very cool pictures! Not only did I have lots of the same toys, but we had exactly the same record player! In the huge wooden chest! My brother still has it as a toy chest for my nephew now (with the record player taken out).
Thanks for posting!

It's so cool to see multiples in an 'original' collection. My mum and dad wouldn't let me have more than one of anything (even stormtroopers or Red Shadows) "You've already got that one, pick something else" I would be told. Not easy recreating Star Wars with one stormtrooper...

I don't think I have any of the original ones I had, I sold loads of them on ebay in march 2006 there may be one or two skulking about somewhere.
Although I do still have a lot of Action Force figs and vehicles from the same time but for some reason I didn't take pics of them and yep it probably was no digi cam in them days so you could re-do the pics and change the bloomin decor.

Guess I was lucky, My folks let me keep all my old toy's & never put any pressure on me to grow up & get rid this childish nonsense. Seeing how hard hard my mum worked to get the money for xmas & birthday pressie's I really took care of most of my toys & still have many of them today...plus the fact I'm an only child must help, no brothers or sisters to inherit & break em.
