Hi, I'm Spanish, an all the people that were children during the 70's and 80's in Spain know well the Madelman action figures.

Madelman Action Figures are Spanish toys, during the 70's over all, a lot of Spanish children enjoy playing with them. They have different series, modern soldiers, Western, pirates, adventures...

Madel began to produce those action figures around 1968. The size of the action figure was 5,91". At the beginning, all the action figures had the same face, there were no Madelwomen, and they had no feet, the boots had a snap-on system...

At the end of the 70's, the figure was perfectioned, and also there were Madelwomen too. In the year 1983, the company (Madel) ended the production. Now, the action figure had feet, beards, moustaches and the faces were more realistic.

At the end of the 80's (more or less), a 3th generation of Madelman action figures was produced with the size of 3 3/4". It's was called "Madelman 2050". The diference in size began a lot of discusions... I think they tried to made action figures like the ones that were famous then: G.I.Joe action figures during the 80's. In that ocasion, they invented a history about an reptile-alien species (the Zarkons)coming to the Earth in order to conquest the planet. There were too humans to fight against aliens (the C.O.T.A men).

In last years Madel returned a little to produce new models about police and sport series and the Spanish publishing house Altaya edited a magazine kiosk collection with new editions of classic vintage Madelman action figures, first generation.

I have some Altayas replicas of some models, like Canadian mounted police (very pretty figure, I think it's the best ever made by Madel), some pirates, and also a vintage 2nd generation spacial pilot.

About prizes, every person who sells on Ebay or similar decide a singular prize for his/her products... so just compare prices on Internet.

Here are some links, photos speak an international lenguage:
