I've had fun with this car boot cheapo.
His plastic face was damaged. On the nose, mouth and ears. A right scalpel job!
Initially trying PVA glue, which didn't work, I then deployed FIMO into the holes.

I recently picked up these 12" action figures dressed as a Chinese male archer and a female Ninja.
Finely detailed and high quality, I've no idea of the make. No makers mark visible anywhere.
Still, here's some shots of them guarding (or attacking) MoonBase Palace.
Enjoy.
This is a mystery to me.
I saw it on an old auction.
An Action Man type figure with two uniforms, a soldier and a knight.
Anyone know who this figure is?
On a recent mooch around Matlock's vintage shops I saw this unusual Action Man clone.
With Action Man GI Joe facial features, the rear of the figure said M&C.
Is this one you know readers?
As this round of our MoonBase International custom toys slowly comes to a close, our latest reincarnation is this 1960's Action Man knockoff.
This was Bill's childhood buddy and along with some of the original kit he totally deserves a new lease of life. The buddy that is, not Bill!
With a good scrub-up and freshly cleaned clothes, Bill's buddy, via the Quartermasters Store, has been sent on one last mission before hanging up his dog tags:
To secure the back garden for the summer!
Whenever I see cocktail swords I think of Action Man!
Stuff like the gorgeous dress uniforms.
Doesn't old Action Man look grand in this complete UN uniform!

This auctioned Action Man caught my eye. He needs a funny caption!
Just what is that uniform with a short and tie?
In another shot the cap is placed with an incomplete Action Man and a uniform.

That Palitoy Action Man Lancers cap I found yesterday ( thanks for ID 'ing it Paul) .....
reminded me of an officer I once found at a German flea market and blogged about 13 years ago.
The new cap would have sat well on this fellow, albeit a cheapo I think. The uniform was by Schildkrot.
