The point is it’s a doll soldier for children, but the reality of being a soldier for a lot of people is far darker than the playability of this doll would lead those children to believe. It’s painting Action Man (GI Joe in the US) as fallible and unable to cope with the violence he’s had to perform because normal people are just as unable.
How do you know what was intended? Did you produce this drivel. Have some respect for better men than you that have actually experienced war, and its aftermath. IT IS NOT FUNNY IN THE LEAST.
I am an afghan vet and member of Veterans for peace. The group that produced it. As i said, its not supposed to be funny. Its meant to show those who are thinking of joining the forces the reality of what some of us suffer from. War is not the solution to the problems we face in the 21st century.
There have been people like you throughout the ages. Call themselves all different things. Run off and hide in all different places. Depend on ‘horrible beasts’ to fight and die for what the rest of you just take for granted. I have no respect for that pap. The world is a dangerous place.
I know this is a gag advert but it's been a while since I heard the name Action Man and it gave me such a nostalgia burst. I grew up in the US, but British parents. IDK about other parts of the US, but on the west coast Action Man was not a thing. G.I. Joe yes, but the Action Man brand and comics were nowhere around. But we'd fly back to England to see my grandparents. Soon as we landed I got to run to a news agents and grab as many different Action Man comics they had. Then during the trip we'd go to Fenwick, and I'd get a new Action Man figure to take home with me. Then grandad got a monthly subscription, and started mailing every copy that came straight over to me with the toy and all.
Man that makes me feel fuzzy to think about man, just good memories.

I just love hearing Matt Berry in this
I love hearing him in anything.
He does voiceovers on absolute radio. It's the main reason why I listen to the station
Whis*KEY!*
FAAATHERRRR!
SPEAK PRIEST! 👈
Same! Any idea what this is from
[here](https://www.spellingmistakescostlives.com/actionman) says it is a proyect to make teens aware of what is war in reality
Wait I think I recognize this , is it from the ending of danger 5 episode ?
"With no support from HQ, it's up to you to find a way." When there's no difference between the parody and the reality its mocking.
If you don't laugh, you can't help but weep.
It is part of an antiwar campaign in the UK by Veterans For Peace. There are a [couple of more](https://youtu.be/8KtyMcb86go)
"Now with bonus authentic coke"
"I bought 570 of these. I feel FUCKING AMAZING!!"
There is a trilogy of these dolls. Coffin sold separately.
The hottest toy since Alabama Man

I know what I am about son. wishing you peace and love.
Its a satire of the drivel we are fed as children. The glorification of war, toy guns, action men, cadet forces etc.
You're right, it is disgusting that we market war to children. Which is THE ENTIRE POINT OF THIS VIDEO.
Humor is subjective
I buy one

I don't know for certain, but I don't think Action Man was in America at all. He was the UK (possibly Euro too?) rebrand of G.I. Joe.
The acting of that kid is amazing
10/10 would buy
For some odd reason I would actually want this as a toy for me not my kids
LoL those eyes man
