GERMAN ACTION FORCE

TERROR BANDE POWER TRUCK

Power Truck

The Terror Bande Power Truck vehicle is driven by the Roter Lenker figure. A second gunner can sit at the rear. 

It has two guns, an aerial and two missiles.

The Power Truck vehicle could seat two figures. It has a windscreen, tow hook, two movable guns, two side guns, an aerial and two missiles. The tow hook could be used to tow the Laser Schleuder (German version of the Laser Exterminator).

The vehicle came with the figure Roter Lenker. He was a repaint of the Red Shadow figure and had painted black hands.

The missiles fitted on two plastic points on the side. These were fragile and the plastic points are often broken inside the missiles. The tow hook was easily removed and not firmly in place. The windscreen and tow hook are also often missing. 

In 1983 Germany released their versions of Action Force as Anti-Terror Teams and Terror Teams. In Germany the logos on the figures were all changed and instead of replica guns they had weapons that looked less-real! The German toy boxes were all cardboard and did not have plastic windows like in other countries.
