Blood for the Baron!

Hey Everybody.

I am new here, having migrated onto this board only recently. Seems like a good crowd and I hope a good source for my new quest to find Action Force and GI Joe international paperwork. I am looking for anything I don't have from catalogs, inserts, mail-in offers, posters, ads.... I have a pretty extensive collection of American paperwork, but have only recently branched out to the international items, so my collection there is pretty minimal. I am also interested in bilingual versions of American paperwork that was released in Canada, and items from South American, Japan, or anywhere else exotic.

So if you have anything extra for sale, please send me a note (and a photo if you can). Thanks!

Adam

Hello and welcome! Can't help your quest myself but it would be nice to see some of your collection.

welcome to the forum, i shall look through and see what i have spare.

I think there are a few spare catalogs laying around in my boxes, all of them are Action-Force International Heroes as this was the only brand that Hasbro-stuff was released as in Denmark.

That's interesting, Rene. Do you mean to say that the later ranges GI Joe - The Action Force and GI Joe were released under the name Action Force in Denmark?

That would explain this little anomaly, spotted earlier: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWAX:IT

Oh, and how gorgeous is that?

Welcome Silverc I have some ROC posters you can have if you are interested? Nice Sky Raven too.

That was awesome. I would've happily paid that.

When we got the GI Joe series to DK back in 85 (my parents bought a toyshop back then, lucky 10 year old me ) it was released as Action-Force International Heroes and it wasnt until sometime in 87-88 that we switched to the GI-Joe name. I guess it was easier to just use the packing from the US instead of having to re-lable it all.

Update: Just took this photo of all the magasines released in DK incl the AF vs Transformers and a few catalogs. I even have the complete stickers album in danish

Sorry for ´jacking the thread like this but I still have some spare catalogs like the one in the right side and in the middle below if you are interested.

I know some were asking about photos of my collection... I took a lot of them last night and just posted a thread here:

Enjoy all of the vintage goodness!
