That they have stopped making action man and accessories?

[AntiMaskersAreTwats]

My 8 year old boy is really into military things. He has asked for ‘a boy doll like Barbie but one which has an army outfit and a house for him to live in’ I’m guessing he is describing what I used to know as Action Man. I’ve found a few on Amazon and a few vintage ones (for £s!) on eBay but nothing like an action man base or house. There is one in Smyths but it’s for tiny army characters. He wants Barbie size so he can do crossover games with his sister apparently.

Does such a thing exist or do I need to attempt to make one?

I was going to say try HMR forces dolls but not sure they make those any more.

Plenty of action men on Amazon. You could just get a large dolls house and paint / decorate it. Or build one yourself if you're handy.

Loads here www.actionman.com/the-range.php

We had action men (with eagle eyes and grippy hands) as kids - I loved the helicopter! Must ask my sister what happened to them.

Blimey I’ve been looking at the price of the old stuff on eBay... if you have an attic, but two of everything and save the spares for your child’s uni fund!

You can get retro versions in several toy shops and other retailers. I think I have seen them in B+M.
But secondhand is the way to go. Try and see if there are any collectables toy fairs near where you live. They are usually all about train sets and model cars but there is frequently stalls devoted to old Action Man stuff.
Maybe buy a Barbie car and paint it military green.

Sports Direct have some on their website !!
