Body Mould

The SAS Frogman has a moulded wetsuit that coveres everything except for his face and hands (the second version of this figure also has black hands). He has a watch moulded on his left wrist and a knife moulded onto his lower left leg. He has defined toes on his feet.

 

ACCESSORIES

The SAS Frogman came with an oxygen tank and flippers. The oxygen tank strapped onto his back and then a connected mask went over his head. He also came with two black flippers that went over his feet. They were quite a tight fit and can split quite easily as they are fragile. 

Check out the oxygen tank and flipper pages by clicking the images below. Each page shows the variations of these items and who they went with.

PACKAGING

The SAS Frogman figure came as a carded figure. 

File Card

On the back of the card back you could see pictures of other figures and vehicles available in the Action Force line. There was also a mail order offer for the Commander figure. Each figure had a form on the back of the card and one medal with a number in it. Five medals could be attached to the form and sent off to get a Commander figure. The SAS Frogman medal number was 18.

VARIANTS

The SAS Frogman version one had pink hands and version two had black hands.

The first series SAS Frogman was a variant of the second series SAS Frogman. The German Barracuda figure also had the same figure mould.

LOOKS FAMILIAR

The SAS Frogman mould was used for the Second Series SAS Frogman.

They look similar to the First Series Frogman but they are different. The pictures below show that the neckline and waist areas are different moulds. 

The Action Man toy line had an SAS Frogman outfit in that this figure was based on.

The black flippers and oxygen tank also came with the First Series SAS Frogman and Second Series SAS Frogman.
