Celebrate 40 Years of Eagle Force with 12 New Classic 4″ Action Figures!

2022 will mark the 40th anniversary of Eagle Force, and Fresh Monkey Fiction is launching an exclusive line of Eagle Force 40th Anniversary Action Figures, available exclusively with BigBadToyStore.

Originally created and designed by Bill Baron and Paul Kirchner in 1982, Eagle Force was a 3″ die-cast action figure military-themed toy line. Even though only the initial assortment made it to toy shelves, it was enough to introduce fans to Captain Eagle and his team of top military specialists with codenames such as Sgt. Brown, Big Bro, Harley, Turk and The Cat. Captain Eagle and his troops battled the evil forces of R.I.O.T. (Roving International Organization of Tyranny), led by the evil dictator General Mamba, who is assisted by Baron Von Chill, Nemesis the Saboteur, Savitar the Ninja, and an army of R.I.O.T. Shock Troopers.

The response to the Eagle Force 40th Anniversary Event has been a success. Initial pre-order sales have allowed BigBadToyStore to unlock our previously planned stretch goals as their own unique assortment. This new Eagle Force 40th Anniversary Wave 3 assortment includes Eagle Force The Cat, escape artist; Redwing, survival expert; R.I.O.T. Medieval Mastermind Baron Von Chill; Faces, R.I.O.T master of disguise as General Rourke; Savitar the assassin; and Savitar’s 13th Ghost henchmen.

“Eagle Force fans have waited 40 years to relive the nostalgia of their youth,” said Fresh Monkey Fiction founder Bill Murphy. “Now Fresh Monkey Fiction is bringing back many of the original Eagle Force team members in their classic gold outfits, with more modern styling and articulation. The Eagle Force 40th Anniversary Action Figures BigBadToyStore exclusive action figures feature 12 figures for the initial Eagle Force Classics assortment. Many of these figures include extra trooper heads, so fans can build out their army of Eagle Force and R.I.O.T. soldiers.”

Each Eagle Force Classics figure stands at 4” tall (1:18 scale) and features:

  • 14 points of articulation.
  • Several accessories including extra heads, hands, weapons, and stands.
  • Heads, hands, weapons, and certain pieces can be easily swapped out to personalize your figures.
  • They are intended to blend in perfectly with other figures in the same scale that share similar themes and designs.

The 12 figures include the leader Captain Eagle (with his trusty eagle companion), demolitions expert Sgt. Brown, the ace mechanic Harley, the sharpshooter Stryker, the evil dictator General Mamba, R.I.O.T. Saboteur Nemesis, the R.I.O.T. Shock Trooper, and Ivan the R.I.O.T. Russian arms dealer. Additional figures include Eagle Force Mega: Strike Force leader Maverick, Monster Force: Crimson Moon Legionnaires, Count Ironblood and Kiloworg troopers.

“BigBadToyStore and Fresh Monkey Fiction are partnering on an unprecedented, four week event to celebrate 40 years of Eagle Force,” said Fresh Monkey Fiction founder Bill Murphy. “BBTS is exclusively offering 12 exclusive, 40 Anniversary figures on day 1. And fans will want to follow Fresh Monkey Fiction on social media for updates during the event including exclusive images, behind-the-scenes material, and just maybe a surprise or two.”

Orders open at BigBadToyStore on October 11, 2021.
