Damn! I would probably have loved these more than Action Force if they'd been released!

And I see they are listed as 3 inch too. MASK figures ended up smaller than that though I seem to think. Anyone got one to hand to measure?

According to point 3 in this blog
8 things... some figures were made:
"In America, the only V toy we ever got was an awesome doll that had a human face you could rip off to reveal the Visitor's true reptilian appearance. It is pretty much the best thing ever. Nevertheless, other countries like Spain got a whole bunch of guns,
figures, puzzles and other stuff."
The size, quality or actual existence of the alleged figures is anyone's guess, and my guess is that someone would have bumped into one or two on ebay by now if they were out there.

I remember a kid in the TV series was playing with some Visitor toys that looked very cool but never saw any in real life. Maybe they'll do a range for the new TV series.

Looking @ the soldier type, he seems to be based on the Nien Numb Star Wars figure..
Plaid stallions also had a feature on a unreleased "The Last Star-fighter" toy line.

Another toy line with some potential

the V toys used in the series were just mocked up figures Kenneth Johnson in the commentary section of the first series mentions about them. i think he said they were GI Joe but it's been awhile since I watched the special features.
