Action Man Longboarder
Action Man is the UK version of GI Joe, and I’m not talking about the schmaltzy 80’s version, I’m talking Kung-Fu grip and Life-Like Hair ™. I checked out a blind link tip that turned out to be the Action Man Longboard Rider. Not being able to read the content, I was mildly surprised that Vans had licensed their logos for a longboard figure, since it didn’t seem genre appropriate, but that was before I saw the making of photos. Turns out it’s not a real kit, but the equivalent of fan fiction, painstakingly crafted. Some of the photos are interesting, and some are intentionally funny. Whoever runs Madelman Blog Show is obsessed with action figures as much as some people are obsessed with obscure skateboarding references.
– Thanks to Boy Ipoh for the tip.
Looks a bit like some Long Board guys I know… Except Action man pushes mongo…
Whohooo, Billy has a ‘longboard’ too!
I love the sliding gloves.
