Not really Action Man. These are 10" British military figures. They just hope to ride the AM nostalgia wave. |

They look nice, but why 10" if they are really trying to replicate the feel of a 12" figure? |

Saw them yesterday in one of our better supermarkets (Sainsburys). They are okay, but I have seen much better. Every one of the Royal Marines I saw looked cross-eyed. |

Isn't that accurate though? From what I've heard about the actual real world Royal Marines, that's pretty much standard...
