Adventure Team and RAH
« on: December 14, 2010, 10:43:11 AM »

I'm sure it was probably discussed before, but who else thought that the original RAH Joes look like members of the Adventure Team? I mean the same beard sporting head sculpts in different colors?
Breaker = Land Adventurer
Clutch = Team Commander
RnR = Air Adventurer
Flash = Man of Action
Hawk = Astronaut
Stalker = England's Tom Stone
Anyone out there made a custom AT using these guys?

I have the Funskool version of Stalker (white man) and I always thought he looked like Saudan Hussein.  :shifty:

I always thought '82 Scarlett looked like GI Nurse.  Makes me wonder if the base head sculpts were based on something/someone specific at Hasbro.

Action force heads were smaller sculpts of Action Man so its quite possible, Mao. I thought the Joes were based on Marvel/Hasbro employees tho?
