Someone posted this link on 1/6 Warriors:

Reissues?

There's also a Facebook group:

It looks like their intention is too make retro-styled figures on the order of the AM 40th!

..
It'll just drive down the prices of vintage !







Pass the Grey Poupon...

Sorry to disappoint you, but the 30th Anniversary was in 2005, and there were only two figures, a Mountie and a Coldstream Guard. The uniforms were a bit shoddy, to be honest (the Mountie was the better of the two).

The Guardsman had a beard too, and was armed with an M16 carbine!

It's absolutely true. A collector bought a few months ago all the original stuff, molds and tooling from Geyper and he's making an anniversary limited edition using them. It's more than a reissue because he's using original tooling. Even the flocking machine is the very same Geyper used in the old days!

I'll post later pics of a head made with these molds and flocked with the original flocking machine wich I received a few weeks ago

That's great news. Never collected any GM stuff before - but I'm keen to see what they produce - maybe some new uniforms.

If they are successful, maybe the owners of the Action Joe and Action Team brands might join the party!

Who knows - maybe Tsukuda will enter the fray!

I will keep an eye on this with much interest. I loved the desert tent GM used to do and would love to have one.

Ask for specific items and make suggestions here, the named collector is a member of this forum... he even gave some clues about it recently... remember someone asking opinions about certain unpainted head

Maybe this one?

BTW can you please post the link to the OSW message? I'm curious

I think the following would be popular:

The Tan MP with White Sam Browne
The "Davy Crockett" figure
The Cowboy
The Tipi or Canoe
Late Edition Australian Soldier
The Frogman with a stable rubber suit
Karate
The Landrover
Any of the Motorcycles

This is very exciting. I'm very fond of . I'm looking forward to see what happens.

This is good news. If the quality is good, I'd certainly be interested in acquiring some.

from a selfish point of view because I didn`t get any of the 40th ones I`d like to see the British infantry and stormtrooper.
I like the look of the Davy Crocket and the tank commander (blue jumpsuit)also the african explorer is cool,ditto the motorbikes what about the 3 hatcher scorpion ?

I would love too, but I'm not sure what kind of industry can make it. Maybe a condom factory? I'll have to dig into


You'll see most of the uniforms you mention if sales goes well, but land rover??? It would be too expensive to make and I'm not sure people would want more landys.

Motorcycles seems to me a better option: smaller, several different models and color schemas and more sought after. We'll see...

Oh god, you should see the size of the mold for the main body part!!!!

The desert motorbike would shift I`m sure,if not the whole bike what about certain parts ie Handlebars grips and exhaust pipes or just a turret plenty of wrecked vehilcles out there waiting to be done up(however is their a market for it?).The wal-mart gi-joe frogman had a decent rubber suit.

Yup, that's how I feel when the whining about "40 Tat" starts.

This Person in Brazil makes them. Apparently they do not perish as easily as other reproductions.


Too bad because this one is beautiful...

Maybe a TOLTOYS reissue, guys? I'd buy that. Do an Aussie Jungle fighter in TOLTOYS box for a lark.

Love these figures DL, very nice. had some great Adventurer outfits/sets, I would love to see these reproduced.
The Aussie is also a very nice outfit that would sell very well.

Where the accessories for the GM Aussie the same as the one, Beatlefan? Snakes aside.

I gotta get me that Red Jumper. Love that set for some reason.

I think it should not be called "anniversary" as this would be "37th"... It's just a nostalgic reprint powered by a collector.

We'll use mostly vintage mint ex-stock uniforms so you'll most probably see some sets like late issue australian jungle fighter, tank commander, british soldier or mountain and arctic that were not seen on 40th action man line. And if these sell well, why not, maybe DAK officer and some other sets not seen at all



Then I think you just have to wait a bit



No, the flame thrower is completely different.

Those adventurer's trousers are from brit infantry set, not the two-pocket right ones. Anyway he looks nice

You have me really excited now. Thas one boxed figure I have always wanted.
