Vintage Action Man Atomic Man replacement hands - Toy Polloi

A quick update on a vintage Action Man Atomic Man figure that I restored a few years back. The hands were never correct so it's time to upgrade those to get this figure looking fully original.

It really is great to have such high quality repro options available to complete these childhood treasures. Thanks for the info Dave!

At the time, I hadn't noticed that the replacement was quite a bit bigger. Those fit much better. Thanks Dave.

Is it possible to have a restoration addiction? I do. This channel is how I get my fix! Thanks, Dave! Good work.

My friend had an Atomic Man. I thought it was really cool.

Not only can Mike Power use his rotating wrist to power his ‘copter, he can also whip up a mean soufflé

Action Man was what you got when Santa didn't know the distinction between Six Million Dollar man and GI Joe. I enjoyed this video thanks 👍!

i have the american version of atomic man . i i got him from sears back in the day

I always thought it odd that he only had one replacement leg - was he expected to hop out of danger? I'd be tempted to modify another 'atomic' leg so he had a pair, myself.

I never realize how different the Action Man Atomic Man was from the GI Joe one? Looking at him with flocked hair and a long sleeved jumpsuit seems weird. I’m so used to him in his short sleeved camo shirt and cargo shorts with the more classic style head. Also what’s going on in his chest?

Also first appearance of Illiana Rasputin. She’s just a child but Magik is pretty important.

FYI, the closest pronunciation for "Gey" of Geyperman is the english pronunciation of "Hey"

Very good restoration as always. At what point do you consider something to be Triggers Broom?

I want to replace one of Tom Bakers hands from the Denys Fisher range. His thumb is missing. I thought a good swap would be to remove the Denys Fisher Cyberman hand and put Tom Bakers on it, because you can't see that hand anyway as it's covered up by the silver suit (mine is almost bald and not silver lol). Leela also has a broken finger but I don't know how I'd fix that. Any chance of a video showing how the Doctor Who Denys Fisher hands can be replaced?

You’re guilting me into fixing a few old friends.
Have you ever seen melting between hands and hard plastics?

While I agree they are definitely better suited than the 'Dynamic Physique' Action Man hands, I have to be honest Dave, and say, having an Atomic Man with near mint original hands, and several pairs of the reproduction mk1 Geyper Man hands, these are actually still quite a bit different from Atomic Man's original hands.
