It's clearly established to anyone who browses this board that G.I. Joe has quite the following amongst our community, myself included.
And while G.I. Joe is great, I have a rather shameful secret to share...
Am I the only member who enjoys/ed his British counterpart, Action Man?
While many unfamiliar people would consider him simply a repackage of Joe, or a later repackaged force of familiar faces, the Man of Action has quite a legacy of his own, particularly when looking back on the mid-late 1990's as the next generation hit shelves here.
So would anyone find it 'childish' or 'immature' to scrounge around for Action Man figures, customize them, and take photographs in 'real-world' situations (i.e. climb a mountain, ride a bike, tackle a weedy forest etc.)? It's not like none of us do that with Transformers or anything. :p
