Very cool! Is there just one figure or do they have a variety? I would love to see a link to the web page that shows them. Great news!

I just got an Eagle Eye with the SAS set. The quality of the figure is great. Head and shoulders above any recent hasbro offerings.

I hope Palitoy is doing something to make these reproduction figures and sets distinct from the originals. As a vintage Action Man collector, I am concerned that this could play hell with unscrupulous or ignorant dealers trying to pass these off as originals.

I have several of the repro AM sets and I don't think there really is any indication the stuff is repro (like many of the 40th GI Joe items had 40th imprinted on them). So you'd have to be a real knowledgeable collector to be able to tell the difference.

I think these are all made by a private collector (ALAN HALL??) under license after the end of the timless line worldwide mush like the GIJCC does here in the US. There have been reissues of many of the rare AM uniforms now incl the 17st lancers and the footballers. The eagle eye soldier is the base doll for most sets (ala ACtion soldier in the timeless sets)

Wonderful. Always nice to see them stab vintage collectors in the back while trying to make a buck!
