The range is Called "Army - Infantry Assault Force" price is ?3.99 for two figures + accessories + scenery. I really picked these up just for the scenery, but the figures aren't bad (just a little long armed) and the accessories are pretty good (the rifles are a little small).

They also had a few mini vehicles (a chopper and a set of small tank + inflatable boat, there is also meant to be another with a 1 man Humvee look alike). The other thing that is on the boxes of the vehicles that they didn't have are more sets with scenery, only the secenery in these ones is more substantial. If they turn up (and I buy them of course) I'll post some pics.

The figures do look pretty good, and a nice touch is the pouches on their legs are interchangeable, and they come with spares (including radios, holsters, knives and ammo pouches), would be quite an easy job to transplant these onto Z Force figures. The Helmets just fit on Action Force figures, but are a little tight.

Z Force of course will be the main beneficiaries of this new hardware, so here are a few of the guys modelling the body armour, new weapons and the gas mask.

Looks pretty OK when it comes to accessories. Do you happen to know the brand, land of origin, etc. This will make my search easier.

Cheers
