Some might see it as stupid, a waste of money, childish, geekish or an attempt to cling on to my childhood but I havent met anyone yet who has picked up an old Action Man figure and said... "WOW,I used to have one of those" or "I still have some in the loft" or "This takes me back to..." and so on!

I started collecting by accident, I was selling my old mobile phone on Ebay and was just browsing through the different sections and spotted an old Action Man Eagle Eye figure and thought I'd bid on it just out of interest as I hadnt seen one in years. I won it! Then I needed a uniform, the plan being for it to sit on my shelf next to my PC just as an object of interest, it was too late I was hooked. I now have over 130 different Vintage Action Man figures and still collecting!!!! I have also branched out into the modern Dragon and Blue Box figures.

Every one has their vice, some gamble, some like fast cars I collect 12inch Action Figures! (AND NO THEY'RE NOT DOLLS!!!! heh!)
