GEYPER MAN - Field Radio (Radio Campaña)

This is a original Geyper Man's Field Radio or Radio Campaña in Spanish. Is a exact copy of one the Hasbro's Action Man Field Radio. Its also from the 1970´s. I believe this from 1975. Was Bought in Spain in the 70's. I hope it works but I dont have now the right bateries to test it.

The pictures shows incorrect headphones. I have the original ones just forget to take pictures. Later I get them.

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

There are 3 disks that we can change in order to listen a Geyper Man March and various military orders in Spanish. Yes is a real record player, Here are some pictures:

GEYPER MAN 1970's Original box

I still have one original (in bad shape) original Geyper Man box.

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

The Geyper Man was a copy of Hasbro Action Man made in Spain. In Portugal was the nearest thing we have as a 1970's Action Man. The quality was the same of Action Man and was also a sucess in Portugal. Here the pictures:

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.

The front panel is deteriorated by the years.
