Nice to see companies getting on board the reprint train.

Unfortunately I have no attachment to the Action Force strips as I have never read them.   So a pass for me.   The price isn't great either at 150 Euros (plus shipping).   However it is a collection and the price is in line with what I would expect.

@Sundance: what do you think about that?

I have no strong feelings. I've read a lot of the strips for free on BFTB. I didn't read BAF as a kid. I didn't start reading 'Action Force' comics until 1987 when Marvel UK's title started with a mix of US Joe reprints and new material.
