| | eBay - Action Man |
 | | Nothing represents this spirit of a typical growing kid, more than the Action Man. The Action Man is a figure of a strapping soldier, having a height of around half a foot, launched in 1966 in the UK, by Palitoy Limited, initially based on the American action hero, GI Joe. |
 | | Though a majority of the action figures were centered around military themes, some of the figures also depicted civilian adventurers, such as deep sea divers, wilderness and snow explorers, and mountain rescuers. |
 | | Action Man has also reached the screen, with the production of an animated TV series, narrating his exploits. |
