- The Action Force strip, based on a popular and long-running line of toys and concerning the exploits of an elite United Nations-backed peacekeeping force , first appeared in IPC's war themed comic Battle from October 1983. A number of creators including Gerry Finley-Day and Ron Turner worked on the series, which even made it onto the comic's masthead, the title becoming Battle Action Force. Unfortunately, in early 1987 IPC lost the licence to publish Action Force to Marvel UK, replacing the strip in Battle with the similarly themed but otherwise unrelated original strip Storm Force.
- The British toy company Palitoy had had success with the larger Action Man (itself a licensed copy of the US G.I. Joe) but by the early 1980s sales were falling. At the same time the Star Wars toyline, which Palitoy was the European distributor for, proved revolutionary in popularising the smaller 3.75 inch size of action figure. In 1982 Palitoy launched Action Force with a series of contemporary and historical military figures, from many different countries. Additionally several vehicles for the figures were released as well.
