    These look interesting......

    A British Toy company called Character Options revealed a new British themed "Ministry of Defence--Her Majestys Forces" line of action figures. I'm getting conflicting stories about size, ranging from 8" to 10"....whichever it is, they may be a new source of fodder for all of us. Unfortunately, going by the name, I seriously doubt we will see them in any markets outside the UK!?

    Character Options does the current Doctor Who line, which does figures in 5" (moulded on clothing) and 12" real clothing

        Look at this picture. If the clear lexan toyfare display behind them is standard 8.5 by 11" tall they are most likely 12" ers... but we can hope for a more mego scale

          Heard back from a reliable source. He says they are just under 10 inches.....kind of an oddball size...and a bit big for Mego kit bashing. Looks to me like the boots are molded on as well.....I hate that.
          Still, on its own a cool line of figures that stand out from the rest of the new items.

              The bodies look like they are a bit on the skinny side and the feet/boots look small.

                That pic looks better than the UK toyfair ones.
