    Mr. Action and Karate Joe!



    I'm officially changing my name to "Karate Joe" this morning to reap all the rewards I assume are associated with it....




    More Explosive goodness.

    Karate Joe is in dire need of his ukulele accessory in order to rock out fully with Mr. Action.

        Man, I had two Mr. Actions (bearded and non-bearded) but they were the cheap versions with only five points of articulation. But I did have that big accessory set shown at the top left of the catalog page (bought it at Consumers Distributing for only ninety-nine cents!)

            Karate Joe looks like he has a hangover!

              Cool pic! I like the variety pack of Mr. Action accessories. In the USA the machete only came with ATV vehicle set. The sword only came with dress Double Action Mr Action Marine set. So they are harder to find tahn other pieces.

                That black karate dude looks disproportional and weird, but I wouldn't say it to his face.

                      In Indiana, they used to have a theme park called Santa Claus Land (now Holiday World). Hey used to sell these guys in Santa’s workshop, along with many other rack toys. I believe I had two Mr Actions.

                        ^I visited Holiday World for the first time last year. Neat park, but unfortunately they no longer carry cool rack toys like this.

                          Of course, this would have been the late 70s. They have all kinds of neat toys, back then. Santa Claus Land was much different than what Holiday World has become. A very neat place...it was magical, I thought. Holiday World isn’t bad and they certainly have some great roller costers!

                            Bil and Jack look an awful lot like up-sized LJN heads.

                              ^ the one on the left looks just like LJN’s John Gage from “Emergency.”
