Action Man finally comes home to BFTB with his very own set of archives! We still need lots more scans and info to complete the comic collection but for now, there are loads of new comics for you to enjoy! The entire BFTB archive format has been rewritten and navigation is now even easier. The Toys, Comics, Customs, Dioramas, Fanfic and Muton World Tour archives have all expanded. The Toys archive now boasts alphabetical and chronological indexes while the Comics archives are now fully downloadable in PDF format, not to mention a new showcase gallery for the exclusive BFTB Action Force comics printed by Rising Sun! I also thought it was high time that the monthly winners of our Custom Competition had their own showcase gallery too. Check them out!



There's more. To celebrate this auspicious occasion, the ever-generous Rene Andersen of www.action-force.dk very kindly helped me to create a diorama. His amazing photographs can be seen in the BFTB adventure Operation: Red Tide! See what happens when the Red Shadows fall upon the most powerful warship in the known world in the midst of a pitched battle between Action Force and Cobra!



Also up for your enjoyment is the fanfic Codename: Bombardier. Featuring knockout art by John O' Hagan, this dark tale features the very first mission for the Black Major! Find out not only what happened to the original Action Force but how and where Baron Ironblood gained his fearsome technology. Starring the members of the lost Action Force team, Special Weapons Force!



And if by any chance you're still not satisfied, may I heartily recommend the Action Farce lunacy from Alan Schell? It's an absolute gem, chock full of mayhem, mania and Mutons! Images courtesy of The Internet Comics. Operation: Red Tide, Codename:Bombardier and Action Farce are all included in the Action Force - 30th Anniversary Commemorative Special.



And just to set things off nicely, there is an incredible new piece of artwork gracing the homepage. Hats off to Flavio Silvestri for truly capturing the essence of Blood For The Baron!!



Why are you still here? Come and join the party! Remember, Roll Out Roll Call 3 is only two weeks away and you do not want to miss this event!

Thank you for nine truly amazing years, the best is yet to come.

Jim.
