Action Men

Don't remember those when I was a lad. I had dozens of green army men though, and later G.I. Joe. I can still remember the look of disappointment on one of my older sister's faces when she lowered Joe's trousers. 🤣

Think I had Johny West for Christmas in about 1968 and the gold Knight in about 1970

Especially the Kubelwagen. I could have retired a lot sooner! 😄

She was into the cabbage patch kids😆

I still have one of those. She's 40 years old now!

Well it was hard to get one for my Sister. It was for Christmas and not many shops had them as theyd sold out and no internet back then, so i couldnt get it online 😁

Here's my little Quimby. She still looks great for a 40 year old. As I remember, Cabbage Patch Gals were a pretty hot item back then. It was close to Christmas and they were getting hard to find. My local retailer had a limited supply and had jacked up the price accordingly. Capitalism at it's finest. When I saw that face though, I had to have her and plunked down my coin...Unfortunately none of ...

Yeah did they come with adoption papers and their name too. I seem to remember there was other bits she came with. I think my Sisters ended up at a jumble sale or car boot sale, as my Sister got older and went on to boys😄
