This no-frills basic figure was introduced (for the first time with no clothes) in 1980. This Action Man 'Chevron' packaging was the last style of branding - it was said to have formed a uniform eye-line on toy shop shelves until 1984. The dynamic physique (or 'Blue Pants') figure was originally released for 1979. This final Chevron type box would have held the undressed 'Sharpshooter' iteration of the figure - the final guise.
The figure was sold either as a blond or brown haired figure. There was no way of telling which was in the box other than breaking the Sellotape seal and looking inside. Many separate uniform sets were available at the time for Action Man to wear.
