    Was wondering........

    Did Hasbro have plans to add female figures to the Adventure Team line? I only ask because of the pictures I have seen of the Super Peggy figure that was released overseas and see that she has the Hasbro trademark info on the back,like how Tom Stone does.

    I like those Action Team female figures very much. I wanted an original but instead made a custom one. I'm surprised Hasbro and Palitoy didn't use those molds in some capacity.

      I'd like to see your custom.PNGwynne.

      I heard about "Action Girl" from someone. England's female Action man version. Turns out it was one of the 11.5" Dollkins with modified face paints. I was able to find the US version easily and added her to my Joe collection. Just to be a completest.

        I used a Hasbro Classic Collection GI Jane body, a $5 Barbie's brown-haired head that I chose for matching skin tone, and a Cotswold plum-colored knit bodysuit fron a South American custom vendor. The bodysuit is sized for female dolls and mimics the Super-Joe Commander style. Just had to frankenstein the neck plug and the bodysuit collar hides that.

        I added a repro shoulder holster, a vintage Super Sandy/Peggy "Golden Colt" revolver, and small jackboots. She turned out well and coordinates with my other 12" custom Super-Joes.


        I've never heard of large Dollikins or UK versions, though I bought the Sandy/Peggy scuba set. Interesting!

          Just did a search. Dollikin was done by Uneeda. Not sure why they'd have Hasbro markings on them.
