Subbuteo astro-pitch... Just like Kenilworth/Loftus Road used to be Still love my subbuteo, all my teams/stands etc are still in the attic... The Action man Training Tower was a good shout too - loved it when I got one of those...
Plenty of good toys in my childhood - I remember Super Striker ( the football game where you pressed the heads to kick the ball ), Evil Kneivel stunt bike, Tonka, then in the late 70s a Grandstand video games console - football , tennis, squash, rifle shooting and motorcycle games.
I used to really want the Action Man Zip wire, never got one though. I had the black helicopter with a claw grabber at the front if anyone remembers that? Cockney, other mini is red, still gives the Impreza a run for its money on the track! I had a Vectrex games console as well, anyone had one of those?
Does anyone remember playing kick-off on the old Amiga, quality especially with the plastic pitch, watch that ball bounce...
You've just brought back bad memories, I always wanted a Grifter and my parents bought me a Commando instead, just not the same. thanks for that all those years of therapy and I've regressed after one post!!
Same here Which one did you have, I had the 48K rubber keys one or were you posh and had the next version
Many moons ago I gave my brother, who was about 5 at the time an empty box and told him it was an Action Man Deserter, it took him a couple of days to twig it, and he still moans about it 40 years later
I remember getting an action man in a Man u(re) kit - must have been somewhere 1973-4 ish - heard they go for plenty of money these days?
