Just like the kids in the video, I played with my Adventure People sets outdoors, more so than with other action figures. I guess the ads worked: these toy characters wanted “adventure,” and there is more adventure outside in tall grass and gardens than indoors.
I had a few sets. Sea, medical, but what I most remember is the Safari Adventure People set. Lions, tigers, zebras, cages, jeep and safari dude. Way cool! When digging up a garden in the yard of my childhood home, one or two “Adventure People” were rescued from their soil imprisonment. What years of “adventure” they had under the grass!
