Palitoy Toy Commercials Action Man

[fszron]

Toys for big boys!

[bravo0105]

G.I. Joe went out with a low-quality, non-militaristic, pathetic puff in the States, but Action Man soldiered on in the United Kingdom. He was what G.I. Joe was supposed to be, and would not be surpassed in detail until 21st Century Toy's Ultimate Soldier and Dragon's 1/6th scale line.

5:59 'he's a c***'?

[BigDuke6ixx]

I had the Scorpion 'Tank' IFV for X-mas in 1972 and it broke all too easily. For example, the tracks kept getting thrown and the headlights fell off. Very disappointing, I never really got over it and went on to become a heavy drinker as a direct result.

[MrRJBowman]

Hasbro, Mego, Ideal. Palitoy was getting toys from three of America's big toy makers. I was unaware of how much America was dominating Britain's toy boxes in the '70's.

[BoogieBrownFunTime]

Ok, the toy at .26, I picked it up at a goodwill just recently.

[SIMPIERROT]

Now you'll never see action man available with a submarine or mobile eyes on store... =(

[ChrisCooper312]

1:20 "Surprise Buttsex!!"

[forkmaster]

Oh man these are some way before my time! I grew up with the late ninetys, early 2000 with these toys. These old ones speak much of WWII.

[roadhoggz1]

certainly brings back my childhood

crying shame the children of today dont know about this kind of play time probably lost forever

[petergriffin289]

5:20 Cool looking Evil Knievel set! Did he come with a Baseball Bat as an accessory? LOL (look it up youngsters)

[rleary1]

Growing up in states I hadn't heard of 'Action Man-Palitoy' till about 5 yrs ago.I started collecting some to go with the 70 complete Joes I have.Since Palitoy built them w/Hasbro all body parts/accessories are complete interchangeable. I've found that the Palitoy (especially 40th reissues) are much better quality than Hasbro! Palitoys SOTW (german/russian/orange scuba suit etc.)are frickin fantastic quality.They're out of stock at modellersloft & getting pricey on ebay.Get em while you can

[fatfoxclown]

@oxleymations

[opelousas3]

Patrick Stewart is narrating the Gargon video (2:56)  Man he's cool.

No, its the late English Actor Patrick Allen.

[blaster2012]

@williamshank Yes,it's Tom Baker.

[palitoy]

Action Man is the UK name for G.I. Joe, that's too American a name for Europe.

[plastique45]

Wait a minute, isn't that G.I. Joe?

[agfagaevart]

they didn't even bother to make the doll look like Evel Knievil...Sorry...I mean the action figure.

I really wanted one of those Super Hereos. Still do.
