Hey everyone. Sam's mum here. Just wanted to say thanks for all the lovely comments. I have one very happy (and very lucky!) 9 year old boy. I know you're already big fans of Tony's but what he did for Sam, not only in agreeing to be involved in his 'Around the World' project but then sending him the special addition to his collection, is utterly amazing. We are all really grateful. P.S. Commander Hedland has settled into his new home and he and Sam are already working on plans for a range of daring missions to complete over the coming weeks!
Fantastic to know that Sam is carrying on the love that we had for our little friend's when we were his age. I still have a collection of action men and even at my ripe old age I still take them on little adventures now and again 😊 my number one Rob Oily says to tell Sam hello.
Love this. Kids are our future and as it takes a village to raise a child, this is the type of kindness that will see our next generation become decent and kind people in their own right. "L'enfant est le pied du vieux."
I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty you possess inside. Give them a sense pride.
Your a class act Tony! To foster the spark in a young boys imagination and selflessly donate your own vintage toy is a testament to what life should be. Giving back and making memories that will one day pay it forward. From one vet to another I’m proud of you, and I proudly give you a salute!
Well done to the young man for reading classic Verne Stories and great to see that kind of imagination still exists in this "things that go Ping!" society today. It actually made me cry remembering my youth in the 70's. Nice one.
What an amazing story, you're a good man Tony. Considering the relative lack of action figures in toy aisles compared to previous decades it makes me happy to see a young kid get so much joy out of an action figure, and a vintage one at that.👏
Fantastic story. And such a wonderful gesture of sending off one of your SAS guys to have a new home with a young collector. That's awesome! Well done, Tony!👍
What a great gift and gesture Tony, the smile on Sams face makes a gesture like that all the more worthwhile, and what a great kid! a very heart warming story! Nice one Tony!
Damn, super nice of you Tony! That’s why I love this channel. You’re the best. That kid is going to have hours of fun, if not years, with his new figure and a life time of memories. Awesomeness. 😎👍🏼
It's great to see Sam, my nephews, and other kids of today, all playing with their ACTION MEN, just like we did. Also, we sent an ACTION FORCE enemy MUTON around the World on the BLOOD FOR THE BARON website, pictured with celebrities and landmarks along the way!
Great stuff Tony! You are a good dude. What a great way to start the day, seeing a young boy enjoying a toy for what it is, a toy. This will be memories that he will cherish forever.
Once again Tony,nothing but class and generous gifts. His face reminds me of myself at Christmas as a child. Keep up the great work. Love the channel. Cheers from Pittsburgh PA. Rob
This is fantastic mate! Exactly what collecting toys should be all about; fun and total joy. You are one of life's golden hearts Tony. Proud to call you a friend.
Didn’t just put a smile on my face it’s fair to say I also had a tear. What a lovely boy, great parenting and a wonderful gesture to send him an SAS figure. Delightful video 😊
Tony, you are an absolute legend and a true, true gentleman. Fantastic to see the look on Sam’s face as well. Let’s hope we can see Sam on one of your future livestreams.
I'm late to the party on this one, I just wanted to say what an absolutely lovely thing you did here for this young man. Bravo to you sir. So kind. That lad looked totally made up.
Dude. Just, Wow. This is one of the reasons I support you & your UA-cam friends. I don't always agree with your opinions, and a lot of times I don't even know what you're talking about, but you have CLASS. These kinds of behind-the-scenes, quiet, humble acts of kindness & generosity... Y'all are good people, Tony. From, A Fan in North Carolina
I am in bits watching this Tony , we all love our little hero that smile on his face was priceless bless him , you are a kind and really nice chap to do this looking at Sam’s face tells it all what we as adults forget as only a child’s smile means . 10/10 Tony thanks for sharing 👍
Fantastic! Tony that was brilliant, the smile on Sam's face, as you put it 'warms the cockles of your heart'. Thank you for the video, thank you for bringing a smile to my face, thank you for all you do.
Tony,my respect and admiration for you has gone through the roof! You are by far one of the paragon's of the collecting community! Thanks to this video,I plan to get my kid into the likes of MOTU,TMNT,Ben 10 and more :)
This is a great video Tony, and it's so great to see a young lad have a creative mind, and interest in a classic book, interest in vintage toylines, and to see how it's triggered his imagination. Who says da yoof of today are broken! :) Especially in this digital "everything on-demand" age, it's wonderful to see more "practical" forms of entertainment and creativity are thriving regardless of generation.
Wow, that's so lovely. And really really great of you to send him back with a companion. It was lovely to see the look on Sam's face when he opened the parcel. Fantastic 👍
aww bless him ,and thank you Tony for this video and your kindness, after what we have been through recently its nice to have something to cheer us up,tbh you would have thought you had given him a million pounds
Wow Super cool Tony you made this kids 2021 and beyond! It's great to see the next generation into Classic 1/6 Action Man and Im certain his watching your channel stoked the fires as it did for me a year or so back..well done Man!
What a great idea Sam, and what a lovely response from you Tony. It is uplifting to know that in this 'Electronic world' we now live, that a toy i once played with in the '60s, is still capturing the imagination of some children today. Hope you and Grace and family are all well,
WOW! Cool videos Tony! I’m a big fan of you and GI Joes, you have inspired me to become a GI Joe collector. I have 14 GI Joes and I’m going to collect more because of YOU! -A fan from a small town in Georgia, USA.

This is just beautiful. The smile on Sam's face is what toys are all about.
The absolute joy on Sams' face is definitely palpable.

Commander Hedland! It's perfect. Gotta love it! What an inspirational story.
Michael Mercy could learn a lot from Sam 😂
Lovely kid.
Fantastic story. And such a wonderful gesture of sending off one of your SAS guys to have a new home with a young collector. That's awesome! Well done, Tony!👍

Plus, bless u Tony, that is a very good gesture.
Beautiful!!! The pure joy on the boy's face was worth it all! And it did make me smile big :)

I got my first action man in 1972. Funnily enough, I called him Sam. His body was broken decades ago but I still have his head.
What a great idea Sam, and what a lovely response from you Tony.
It is uplifting to know that in this 'Electronic world' we now live, that a toy i once played with in the '60s, is still capturing the imagination of some children today.
