Blood for the Baron!

Well i promised i wouldnt start collecting Action Man aswell, but ive decided i want to get one of my favourite toys as a child - Captain Zargon.

So, im looking for a near mint boxed one, anyone know one for sale? Also how much am i likely to have to pay?

Thanks!

Lewis lewis lewis (tuts and shakes his head.....) You're as weak as I am!

(sorry mate, cant help with it - but good luck!)

lol.....i need info of where to find one Steve...help!

I'd start by looking in outer space? But then again that is based on the assumption that the Zargonites were, in fact, real.

If I'm looking for a toy I tend to try as my first port of call, the room at the top of my house at the back - there's loads in there. If that's not successful then I turn my attentions to ebay or the internet in general? (sorry mate, I'm just being a pain in the arse now arent I?)

On a serius note VAME forum is good - very friendly and some members here are also members there (Pauli, myself (although I dont post much)). Could be worth sticking a "I would like a Capt Zargon" thread on there?

Lewis you will be about £100 for one of those boxed (may be more) and they are like rocking horse sh*t!

Cheers guys.

Ive found one for £120! so about the right price. Let you know how i get on.... now to decide....do i or dont i. lol.

Great news that you've been bitten by the Action Man bug Lewis!

I was REALLY into AM's last year and now have loads. Luckilly I have all the ones that I want now, so we won't be battling for anything AM-wise!


This pic of mine is old and I have more Space Ranger AM stuff since this pic was taken:





I have the regular AM Eagle Eye Zargon trooper like in the pic below but not the Zargon Captain as I never had him as a kid and so he's not one of 'my faves'.

£120 for a boxed Captain seems about right to me, though.


Good luck with the AM's - post pics of what you get please!

I love that picture Pauli! Your AM collection really is brilliant! (actually, as are your Star Wars, and AF collection - you jammy so and so you!).

One thing always makes me chuckle with it - the guy in the rubber Space Ranger suit always looks to me like he's looking sideways at the other lads in a slightly embarassed "my suit looks silly as my feet are floppy" way! My light blue rubber suit (for AM, not me personally!) was always the same as a kid - squished down when the figure stood up! And always smelled of Talc too!

Cheers paul, i'll let you know how i get on.

Glad also the prices wont be going mad, with us bidding against each other.

On a side note PM sent.
