Action Man: Battlefield Casualties poster
I made these boxed toys originally for a poster which comes as part of my 'Join the Army' comic.
The poster and comic are now included in the V&A Museum's Permanent Collection.
You can order a copy of the comic which includes the poster, an individual poster or individual postcards of each Action Man at the bottom of this page, or in the shop.
