it was hard to choose between the X-Force Chinook and the SWS vehicle, but in the end i gave it to the SWS vehicle.

mini action men, Shadow SEAL and TTBP were close behind.

I chose SAS squad leader 2 I think it looks good as a jointed updated version.

For the vision of coming up with the unique idea and taking Customs in a new direction - Mini AM's all the way for me!

Mini Action Man! A simple but very effective concept combined with excellent craftmanship.

Those little fellers put a smile on my face, that hair looks too silly!

Tough choice this month (as every month!)

All entries are top but I've got to go for Andy's SWS vehicle.

Nice one bud

Thanks for the kind words gents! It's great that some of you love my mini Action Men as much as me! These are my favourite of all my customs as the idea was SO obvious once I'd thought of it. Wise, after the event...



Will I beat Andy to his customary 'custom of the month' slot. It will be tight. He's the Man U of AF customs in everyone's book, so he may well still make it 3 titles in a row. I guess we'll have to wait with baited breath, ooh the excitement!



I voted for the Baron's Q Force Platform. I'm amazed that no one else has. This custom is simply wonderful in my eyes. It oozes Palitoy. If they hadn't been taken over by Hasbro and gone all GI Joe jointed, then this is exactly the type of toy that would have been produced. A U.S. remake in AF colours. If these were made tomorrow, I'd snap one up straight away as it fits Q Force perfectly and I completely love it. Anyway, its hugely deserving of my vote imo...
