In my experience, and also after searching the internet, I have discovered that action man seems to have myriad grappling hooks, yet nothing to actually hook onto. Back in my action figure days, (That is, the days of playing with them - not being one) the best thing I could hook onto was a fireguard - and they don't seem to be all that common in other houses I have visited. The action man hook net finally provides a sorely needed accessory to children the world over - attachable via a plastic vice to such things as shelves, mantle-pieces, furniture, tables etc it allows action man to reach the previously unreachable.-- fridge duck, Feb 18 2006 I've never heard of action man before.-- MikeOxbig, Feb 19 2006 Think GI Joe, old style.-- DrCurry, Feb 19 2006 Oh.-- MikeOxbig, Feb 19 2006 random, halfbakery
