When you have little ones it’s surprising how many toys that you recognise from your own childhood. How so many toys from both mine and Craigs childhood are doing the rounds all over again. The latest one being Action Man.
Action Man was one of my husband’s favourite toys to play with when he was a child and our recent delivery sent him on a trip down memory lane!

Action Man Timeless Classic Range connects generations by bringing back the original hero’s even better than before! We have the much-loved Soldier and Sailor. All figures stand at 30cm tall with multiple points of articulation and not forgetting the infamous Action Man dog tags.

Soldier Action Man has the iconic desert camo, removable beret and sand boots. His trusty friend Sailor is rocking the blue sailor suit, matching beret and boots.

If that’s not enough awesomeness for dad and the kids, for a little extra – £24.99, the three Action Man Deluxe Classic sets come with fab extra accessories to make playtime even more fun!


It’s nice to see our boys liking the same toys that daddy once spent hours playing with too. Joben hasn’t put his Action Men down since they arrived. They’ve gone off on missions with their tank, they have taken cover under hideouts (bushes in the back garden), they have gone on walks and even trampolined! It’s safe to say that the boys in our household are pretty impressed that Action Man is back to stay. Even the big kid too!

The Action Man Classic and Deluxe ranges are available at all good toy stores and Amazon just in time for Father’s Day.

My nephews loved GI Joe when they were young and this looks similar. Boys do love them! #MMBC
Oh wow! I remember that my brother used to love his action men! These look fab! It sounds like Joben has been having great fun with them. x
Do they still have the kung-fu grip and the moving eyes? I am a huge fan of toy nostalgia, particularly Sindy. But yes, action man was always around too! #MMBC
Yes i played with action man and Cindy brings back fund memories X #mmbc
My son loved playing with the action figures and pushing them around in his sisters. Pram lol
Gosh these have moved on a bit – we’ve got a couple of the old ones & they look A LOT different! #MMBC
I remember my brother having an action man he too used to fly down from the trees in his parachute after being thrown down by by brother, he had a big green tank that it use to sit in and my brother had great delight demolishing my sindy dolls home with it , oh happy memories
My sons and now my grandchildren loved the action men my son used to absale his out of the window
My son loves all of his dads old action men play sets and figures. We are so glad he kept them x
These were so popular, I kind of forgot about them until I saw this article
Yes. I love it when old favourite toys come round again. Everyone seems to have a tale about their brother and action man. Not always happy endings, but a doll that seems to be part of most people’s childhood memories. #mmbc
I remember my cousin used to play with action man, while I had a cindy doll!
