Action Man is the codename of several humans from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
You can't see me!


This character has no official visual representation in any Transformers product or media... yet, at least.

Action Man is Britain's one-bloke answer to G.I. Joe, a master of all forms of fighting, communication, and disguise. Having served the crown since the days of Elizabeth I, the Action Man honour is bestowed upon an agent trained to perfect physical and mental calibre. One such chap crossed paths with the Adventure Team.

The current Action Man is Ian Noble, a young lad seeking revenge for the murder of the previous Action Man.

Fiction

IDW Generation 1 continuity

While meeting to discuss the Transformers, Joe Colton and his mate Miles Manheim recalled their encounter with Action Man during their Adventure Team days. Road to Revolution, Part 1

Notes

  • Action Man is based on the U.K. version of G.I. Joe from the 1960s, released around the same time as the G.I. Joe Adventure Team. Colton and Manheim meeting an Action Man is likely a reference to that.
