Action Man Royal Navy Sailor from Palitoy

This my oldest 1/6 figure. Is a Vintage Action Man with body from 1964 made by Palitoy (British Version from the American GI Joe)

The basic Action Man Action Sailor figure from 1966, was replaced by a flock haired Action Man figure, with a more British flavour in 1971 and renamed simply "Sailor" and wearing a 'Square Rig' uniform for a Royal Navy junior rating. This all new Action Man Sailor was flocked with a full beard (as was the new Adventurer a year earlier). It could be accessorised further by equipment card sets. He ran for approximately seven years, gaining Gripping Hands in 1973, and then Eagle Eyes in 1977.

Update in 22/05/2017: I dont have this figure anymore. Go to a vintage collector in exchange of other more recent figures and equipment that I like.

Is body was a little flacid. The uniform is old. I dont have any additional equipment.


 Is a Sailor from the WW2 British Aircraft Carrier HMS Ark Royal
 Is head is very good for the years he have. Its a flock haired blond version

GEYPER MAN and ACTION MAN 1970's Catalog

I have one 1970's catalog of Geyper Man and one 1970's catalog of Action Man. That is very rare. The Geyper Man catalog comes with all the figures and acessories. The Action Man catalog, also very rare, was given by some friend in the 1970's. Thats when I realease that I must have this figures and equipment.

Update in 22/05/2017: I dont have these catalogs anymore. Go to a vintage collector in exchange of other more related recent figures and equipment that I like.

Palitoy - ACTION MAN Space Capsule 1967 - 1970

Action Man Space Capsule Description:

"Every Astronaut needs a capsule before he can blast off into outer-space. Action Man Astronaut has his! Designed from the Mercury space craft blueprints and scaled to fit him perfectly, it will float in the water after splashdown!".

The Action Man Space Capsule first appears in the 1968 Equipment Manual. It was a very popular at a time that man was preparing to land on the Moon. It was based on the 'Mercury' Missions. The sliding window that allows access into the capsule becomes scratched easily. As this piece was reputed to 'float' many of the instrument panel decals have buckled in bathwater.


Yes I have one of this. I found it in a forgoten old box. I buy it in the late 70's. Was one of my favorite toys at that time. Never had the Astrounaut outfitt but I use any figure available then to play.

Update in 22/05/2017: I dont have this Capsule and figure anymore. Go to a vintage collector in exchange of other more related recent figures and equipment that I like.


Is not a Action Man but a Geyper Man



The front panel is deteriorated by the years.
