Action Man is now Action Dad
Action man putting that kungfu grip to use
His name is MRS. NESBITT!
The tiara is just the crowning touch on all of this.
Happily surprised you managed to even keep your old toys. Getting rid of mine was considered a rite of passage to being a “big kid” in my family.
Edit: I miss you Barbie Dreamhouse, Barbie Volkswagen, and Barbie Jeep.
Action Man: Please just go the fuck to sleep….
So, my wife let me in on the story behind the picture. Action Man is no longer Action man (because that’s not a real name according to my daughter), but is called Tobias. Tobias’ oldest daughter (who btw is Elsa, queen of Arendelle) was having her birthday party, and she unfortunately fell and broke her leg. So, Tobias’ pregnant wife Cindy pushed aside everyone and declared that she’s taking Elsa to the hospital – “I’m taking Elsa to the hospital! Till then, you take care of the baby”.
My action man used to date my sisters barbies
When your life partner is a doctor astronaut president, you get out of bed put on a tiara and get to diaper duty
I used to dress Action Man in Barbie’s clothes. He was Auntie Molly. I’m not sure why I cross dressed him, but it did annoy me that there were no older Barbies. They were all hot early-20-somethings or children. No grandparents or older mums, so Action Man was Auntie Molly.
If Toy Story was real then action man is having the time of his life being played with again.
Paternity leave suits him well
the perspective on this photo makes it look like he’s life size.
My 4 and 2 year old daughters just got daddies GI Joe’s. They are excited about their “princes.”
Seems like dad’s are super heros in your daughters eyes.
You are doing it right.
They got a message from the Action Man
“I’m happy, hope you’re happy too
I’ve loved all I’ve needed, love
Sordid details following”
The man of action is now enjoying a simpler life in peace time.
Action man, the greatest hero of them all: a good father
Gone!! It’s all gone! All of it’s gone, bye bye, woowoo, see ya! One minute you’re defending the whole galaxy and suddenly you find yourself sucking down Darjeeling with Marie Antoinette and her little sister
Is that Hans Solo dead on the top of the chest of drawers?
It’s like the end of Uncharted 4 in doll version.
Astronaut, fireman, bakes, does picnics, takes care of baby; truly the pinnacle of human masculinity.
Thanks for the laugh! As a boomer who bought her sons dolls, this really cracks me up. I was trying to be forward thinking and giving them choices of lots of toys. My poor old Barbie had a lot of “accidents” and had to go to the “ospital” every day. They soon had their own action figures too 😀
He’s not the man they think he is at home, oh no, no, no, he’s a rocket man.
When I was young my stepsister wouldn’t let her barbies married Ken cos he was to soft. They could only marry action man…
“I guess this is my life now.. should of wore a condom.”
This could be the start to his new film.
retired action man is living his life in a quiet suburban neighbourhood with his wife and new child, he spends his days working in his shed, mowing the lawn and coaching his older sons football team. No one in the neighbourhood knows his past.
All is well until he gets the call from the government that he’s needed again. Time to put down the bottle and put his foot on the throttle.
Action man has worked hard and faced many dangers to make the world a better place for others.
Action Man has earned his right to experience the safety and peace he helped create.
Good on Action Man.
My son had an Action Man. He was the most bad ass of all the dolls and m daughters always stole him to be Barbies BF
My mother used to make clothes for my Action Man figures. She had sewing machine and did it out of hobby.
Action Man? Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in years.
That is the face of a man who hasn’t had a good night’s sleep in a long time.
Action Man got some action, man
Pffft. He’s questioning his life choices.
When were you a kid? I have never seen this toy.
Action man sighs: This is my life now
Sweet retirement
“I used to go to space you know!”
Well, that is a doll as well.
Clearly, he’s getting a different kind of action these days.
It was time to set down roots.
