ACTION FORCE 1983-1984 (SECOND SERIES)
RAPID FIRE MOTORCYCLE
Rapid Fire Motorcycle
The Rapid Fire Motorcycle came with the figure Quarrel. It has a side car with a large machine gun on it.
The Z Force Rapid Fire Motorcycle came with the figure Quarrel. The Rapid Fire Motorcycle was a motorbike with a sidecar style gattling cannon. The Motorbike had a stand underneath it so that it could stand up without falling over. This stand is often missing or broken. The motorbike also had two saddle bags on the rear that could be removed.
The sidecar gattling cannon was on wheels. The points of plastic that connect the gun to the bike are often broken as they are quite fragile.
The vehicle is a repaint of the G.I. Joe RAM cycle.
