My sad Action Man story: I had a ‘Talking Commander’ Action Man, which would utter various military phrases such as “TAKE COVER!” when a string in his back was pulled. One birthday I received a ‘working’ parachute for him. Excitedly I fitted the parachute to him and threw him out the bedroom window, and watched with horror as he plummeted to the patio below, his ‘working’ parachute failing to deploy. Following his parachuting accident he developed a severe speech impediment, pulling his string resulted in a stuttering “Ta, ta, ta, take cov, cov, cov, cover!”.
Desolder the jumper on the PacMan mini, solder each of the 4 pins nearby to a different direction. Hold a different direction on boot up for Galaga, PacMan, Ms Pacman, and Space Invaders. Not holding a direction boots into test mode. This works with any of the 4 units ;)
World's Smallest Transformers had a Soundwave that came with a teeny tiny Ravage about half the size of your pinky nail. But it DID convert from a jaguar to a cassette tape.
I have a few of those Worlds Smallest Transformers. I think the most impressive one I have is G1 Megatron. He's super tiny at around 2cm tall but still fully transformable. A very intricate little figure.

The original Stretch Armstrong was much denser and heavy. After getting it for Christmas in the 70s I took it to Catholic school after the holiday break, had it outside in the snow, and it froze solid in a matter of a few minutes.
To dissasemble the cube, you move one side a 1/4 turn and pop the corner piece off. Then just keep rotating every thing till it's in bits and reassemble. I had the same one for years.
I remember attempting to peel the stickers off of a couple Rubik's Cubes. Sometimes I could actually get them off, but the adhesive wouldn't be very good when it came time to put them back on, but usually you just ended up with the nasty white residue and an unusable sticker. I *definitely* remember disassembling at least one (probably involved wedging a screwdriver in between the cubes instead of using the thumbs) because I always felt like the core looked *really odd* for some reason.
The shape of the core is meant to ensure that the center squares of each side always remain their same color! White opposite to yellow Red opposite to orange Blue opposite to green
I would ABSOLUTELY watch a video of ashens rambling about the history of action man and related franchises... (Or really any franchise lol, hot wheels or micro machines)
That Action Man sitting pose we used to call Baby Burpo after a character from I think Beano or one of them. I remember having a large Darth Vader (12" scale I think) way back that sat like that.
I've collected a set of "World's Smallest" G.I. Joe figures, the ones from the 80's that is. Two of them I got through their "World's Smallest Mystery Box" line, and the the third one on my Birthday. Pretty cool stuff. Fun video, I did see the old school "G.I. Joe" one, aka "Action Man" on one of the pamphlets, seeing it here, it does look dope, in both the good and bad ways.
It's funny how you said that about Action Man putting a magnet in his head since that's pretty much how they flocked the original heads in the 1970s. The heads were placed on a static generator that attracted the fibres.
Tiny Stretch Armstrong seems more tidy and well-behaved than his relatively gargantuan goo-filled predecessor. More compliant & demure, less heft & goo.
Weird seeing the 90s action man logo on a mini 60s Action Man/Gi Joe, because that version's like an entirely separate entity from Gi Joe/Original Action Man (even here in the US).
technically, the world's smallest action man isn't really, they did "the world's smallest GI joes". Whose price isn't small, for some reason. not small at all.
@@cheatsheet3325 I see. What I always like about the one of these hot wheels I had was that it was legit the wheels on normal Hot Wheels, but massively scaled down. Really impressive bit of engineering really.
"World's Smallest" GI Joe? Aren't most GI Joes actually smaller and better articulated than that? I mean, I guess they're comparing to the barbie doll sized ones, but ehhhh....
They actually do have World's Smallest G.I. Joes. They're basically just tiny, unarticulated figures on a tiny plastic fake blister pack done up to look like the packaging, based on the 80's cartoon. They also have World's Smallest Transformers that are the same unarticulated figures that do NOT in fact Transform. Didn't even bother to reproduce classic Transformers packaging.
That Action Man at the end put me in mind of when a dog scoots on a carpet to scratch its bumhole, I'm now tempted however to go in search of the Hotwheels one although the only one I've seen in a shop so far was the Fisher Price Telephone.
The tiny action man works well with G.I Joes. A nice background character or new Joe or suchlike. The Mini Pac-Man machine also scales well as a Pac-Man machine for said G.I Joes!
The issue with that would be calling it "Pac Man", not with calling it "smallest". "World's Coolest PacMan" has the same problem as "World's Smallest PacMan". They're still calling it PacMan.
I wish they'd had tiny Hot Wheels back when I had my HO model train layout, I think the scale would have matched better. The Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars I used back then were really too large.
I had a stretch arm strong and my sister had his sidekick a dachshund. I wondered what makes them stretch so bit into them and broke the toys apparently it was a type of goo. This was duing the 90s BTW it was re released and my brain is a bit broken Also had a Acton man and I'm a girl who wanted a swimming barbie but still liked him, he had a drill and scoober gear also played the demo of the PS game I was maybe around 10, 8 at the time "action man the greatest hero of them all"

Wow, I actually have something from that line. World's Smallest Magic: the Gathering, which is two teeny-tiny decks of cards with itty bitty print on it that you'd need a magnifying glass to play without squinting. But it does have all the text, symbols, illustrations, and everything.
I really like this concept of taking old toys and rereleasing them as tiny versions of themselves but still staying true to the look and packaging of the original. Is this company only doing this in the UK? I wonder if we can get these in the US.
My brother bought a World's Smallest Magic: The Gathering deck, it was actually a Jace Vs. Vraska dual decks so you got 2 decks of the smallest cards you have to have a magnifying glass for just to read them. But they are accurate.
Bought one of the "Worlds Smallest" Transformers Starscream figures at the mall a couple months back. Idk why i thought it would actually transform, but still a nice little novelty nonetheless.
@@VulpisFoxfire thats from a seperate Worlds Smallest line from Japan. This line was made earlier by Takara and the transformers in that line actually transformed. The US worlds smallest line doesnt do that
I had a small Rubik's cube key ring, but it was bigger than your one. I also took it apart and rebuild it. Couldn't be bothered with turning the blocks around to try and get it right.
You could always buy the _actual_ world’s smallest Rubik’s Cube and assemble that. It’s about 5x5x5mm and comes disassembled. You need tweezers, magnification, and more patience than I have to assemble it.
I just picked up my cube and seem to have completely forgotten how to solve it. Back in the 80's I mostly solved it by trying moves and taking notes of what happened, I did look up one step though (don't remember where as it was before the web, probably one of those "how to solve the Rubik's cube" books that were sold everywhere). I've always regretted that but it looks like I have forgotten enough to start from scratch. And yes I still have my cube from back then, and no it was not in a box in a closet, it's mostly always been on display on shelve even if it doesn't look that good at it's a clone, the colored squared labels have never been removed but aren't aligned properly anyway. Well I think it's a clone, I do not remember how I got it, it's good enough as it works well enough and none of the labels have fallen off in about 40 years. I grew up with normal size GI-Joe that could get it on with Barbie, but that smallest action man seems the same size as the small GI-Joe's that came out in 82.
I like the way you say you _have_ the World’s Smallest Transforming Transformers, but you also say Ravage _was_ the size of a fingernail, implying he was so small you lost him long ago. 🤣

The tiny action man works well with G.I Joes. A nice background character or new Joe or suchlike. The Mini Pac-Man machine also scales well as a Pac-Man machine for said G.I Joes!
