A range of toys depicting members of the UK Armed Forces, their kit and clothing, has gone on sale to coincide with the 64th anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE) Day today, 8 May 2009. Soldier and action figure Specialist manufacturer Character Options Ltd worked closely with the Ministry of Defence to produce the 'HM Armed Forces' collection, with military advisors ensuring that the figures, kit, and clothing are as accurate as possible. The range of 27 toys includes nine detailed and highly-articulated action figures, four vehicles, and additional items of clothing and accessories. British Army figures include an infantryman, a mortarman, and an armoured infantryman in full combat kit. Representing the Royal Navy are a Royal Marines Commando, a Navy diver, and a Commando in a canoe. And for the RAF, a fast jet pilot, a search and rescue winchman, and a member of the RAF Falcons parachute display team, complete with a 'throw-and-deploy' parachute, specially constructed to withstand the impact of a heavy landing.
