ACTION FORCE 1985 (THIRD SERIES)

SNOWJOB

Snowjob

Arctic Ski Patrol.

Born: Perth, Scotland.

Enlisted initially to train for the Winter Olympics. After the Games, he surprised everyone by staying on and joining Action Force.

Slippery and evasive on skis, he has a sure and steady aim. A top marksman in the Action Force team. 

Snow Job came with a rifle, backpack, two skis and two ski poles. The backpack was clever design and could be used to hold the skis and ski poles. The ski poles were very fragile as they were made of very thin plastic. The skis and poles can be hard to find. Snow Job’s white body and parts often discolours over time.
