Hi - I'm a fan of the Battle Action Force Red Shadows.
I've recently learned that the Red Shadows soldiers, Black Major & Baron Ironblood were all released as convention exclusives in 2010 & 2012. I'm trying to find a source to buy these, but they're not even on ebay. Are these toys really rare? Does anyone have any sources? Sorry if there's already a thread for this. I tried the searches, but only found a thread about the Kraken, with the giant 2011 Kraken figure in it (of which I have no interest). This is my first post, so if someone knows a better place I can post this here at Hisstank or elsewhere, let me know. (The forum at Blood For The Baron is currently down.) thank you! http://www.hisstank.com/forum/attach...1&d=1349361555 |

Did you know they're UK toys? Quite common over here, did a quick search on Ebay UK. If you'r looking for a UK contact to help out, I'm looking for a US contact to help with Retaliation & Dollar Joes.

Yeah, I know the originals are UK toys, but I'm not sure where to get the recent updates from.

ive been collecting Palitoy Action Force over the past 5years. In trying to get a complete set ive picked up lots of items and neverparting with anything spare till my set was complete. (Still missing Gaucho and Dolphin V1 not the oring Dolphin) so i decided to see how many red shadows i had and what my army looked like. always fun to collect and then dig it allback out years later. all figures are mint and complete as well as the vehicles.

The Blood for the Baron guys made the Baron exclusive - you'll have to wait till their forum is back up to talk to them - but he is gorgeous!
The Red Shadows, Major Bludd, the staff car and the bunker were all Joecon exclusives - if you ebay 'Vacation in the Shadows' you should get some! Alternatively, it's worth checking out the GI Joe collectors club website. They may still have some left.

The only convention exclusives on e-bay are 2 of the Red Torches.
The other option is to search out some of the casting websites I got some Shad heads from them. There are RS fans on this site as well Red Shadows - Home Check out some of the customs might give you some pointers. |

Thanks. I am indeed waiting for that forum to come back.
I just emailed the GI Joe collectors club website - thoguh there's nothing in the online store. Thanks for that suggestion. Quote:
