During the 1970s if you liked GIJOE then Mr. Action was the man. It was very hard to get any military equipment for Gijoes in 1970s but Mr. Action was there with Guns, dynamite, grenades, messkits, helmets, and tons more. Mr Action was produced by LJN all through the 1970s, in at least 4 countries.
Often Mr Action items could be bought with pocket change by a child with only a $1
LJN was very prolific with Mr Action toy line, they made Action Compact Vehicles, Deluxe Adventure sets, single Uniform sets, and figures. These were sold in stores like K-mart and many mail order catalogs of the period.
See Mego Museum for another pic.
LJN first started with Action Outfits before coming out with Mr. Action concept. I fondly remember the back of the box which showed all 12 outfits dressed on a GIJOE SOTW figure but with then mod sideburns. It cracks me up that the peace symbol is upside down on tha box! Enough talk here's some pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Basic figures: 2 types bearded and non bearded
Deluxe COWBOY Uniform set with card board Diaorama.

The 2 best 1970s Sci-Fi rifles came from Mr Action. The one with ATV vehicle and the one that came with Helicopter are classic.
