UPDATES: June 27, 2003:  Details for the SPV toy for action figures!

VIVID TOYS

1993 - Vivid Imagination issued a good number of Captain Scarlet's related merchandising.  Still available through auctions and in speciality shops, those toys ranged from action figures, die cast vehicles and crafts, dolls, toys weapons, etc. 

You'll find here a list of items offered by Vivid.  As I am not an expert in toys, the list's not complete, and you are welcomed to help me complete it with information and pictures of the models presented, or of those I would had forgotten.
