'But the Evil Twins have ONE last trick up their sleeves!' (A rope slide that goes UP...) Lol...Great toyline, had lots of it as a kid, then collected it as an adult...sold a lot of it off now but G.I.JOE / ACTION FORCE still is one of my all time fave toylines...
I had the Hovercraft. Bought it myself couse my parents thought it was to violent for a gift. the propelors were spinning and it also had a little motorcycle on it. Best investment of my childhood
There was a 1984 US advert where the Rattler was paired with the WHALE Hovercraft I was a bit surprised that Hasbro UK did not do a re-voiced version of that 1984 US advert
Well actually its action force! Ha! Thankyou for posting this video and bring those memories flooding back..sob.. childhood IS the happiest time.. who'd've thought it!!
Action Force is the rebranding of G I Joe by Hasbro Europe. It's purpose to defend Europeans against Americanism by changing the name and badly re-dub episodes in places. :D
I had the hovercraft but my fave vehicle was the Armoured Troop Carrier.....no it was the Roboskull....mind you I loved the Z Force tank. Thought the Hyena was crap really but what a figure red jackal was. I think the vehicles got a bit unrealistic as time went on and bit boring but Zartan and swamp skier changing colour in the garden was brilliant.
@@yaboym3247 I don't think I can recall enough of the Palitoy Action Force media to say if it was any good. The UK comic had some good stories with Flint & Lady Jaye as the leads. The UK Real Ghostbusters Comic was decent too. As for Transformers the UK story Target 2006 stands out.
I spent all year saving up for the hovercraft aged about 8. You have NO IDEA how pissed off I was that it didn't actually float!! The depth charges were cool tho.
I think it is possible to get it to float by filling the skirt interior with polystyrene blocks. I bet the screws will be rusty on anyone of those Hovercraft that was immersed in water at any point though.
Action Force can never escape the 'wroth' of a CGI fist made out of red, white and blue. :D
A Real American Hero, GI Joe is there.

Yeah, that was an evil and sneaky movie. They ate so evil they even break the laws of gravity.

Thank God I still have my killer whale with the Box.
@@alfonsogarcia8601 I didn't know the WHALE hovercraft had a motorcycle. I recall it had recon sled.
If you need spares the sled that came with it is buried in a back garden somewhere in Southampton, circa about 1991 😄
@@JoeParkerAndThePower Hahahaha nice

Funny how the toys still say G.I.Joe on them. Those were changed for the actual toys released in the U.K. yes?
Yes.
"International hero!"

Transformers was crap really. From the toys to the comics, Action Force was far superior.
