Yeah, she was a kind girl, that cared for Rollie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Being roughly the same age I fancied Zammo's bird Jackie. She should have ditched that loser and gone out with me instead... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an eyeball (not shown) that cyclops lad with the horn could be extremely painful if you actually tried using it as a ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tongue_tied_danny Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I had quite a few Action Force figures. For the uninitiated, these were the same size as star wars figures. You could also get boats, jeeps and the like. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a few of those. And then later they made a variation of them where you got a figure and the head would pop off the top. I had the eyeball one of those: Wish I still had it now, given the price of them! £107 on ebay Which has reminded me of this thing that I got one birthday from my gran. He said various rude phrases which were activated by you pulling out the eyeball which was on a string. Loved it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had these there was the baseball sized ones, and small figure type ones whose heads could pop off and be swapped over. Boxed these all up recently clearing out old dears attic. ETA beat by milton!. Really that price? I have three of the spring head ones and 4 of the balls. Boxed all this last year, it's in storage till get attic floored here. Turtles, he-man, thundercats the lot. Might be able to find pics on this fone I'll have a look Edited February 26, 2020 by HeWhoWalksBehindTheRows 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
