Action Man Parachustist

Created for Hasbro to celebrate their 'Action Man' as the nations favourite action figure, this 150ft special shape had an inside leg of 70ft, a 100ft waist and enough presence to create an equivilant marketing spend of his production cost within the first 2 months of opperations, through solus media coverage alone!

With a unique smoke system installed, that allowed the pilot to add to the drama as he took to the skies; no branding oppertunity with missed logos reproduced on his legs, both parachutes and his feet. Not to mention on the pilot, crew and vehicles that flew and operated him!
