[Davey-UK]

Hi everyone, need a little help here! Does anyone vaguely remember a Pirate toy from the 70's....namely a pretty big pirate action figure that had a wooden leg with a map rolled up in it! I don't know what made me think of it..it just happened but I do remember it and seeing the adverts for it but for the life of me can't remember the name...please help David

That would be Captain Pegleg from Matchbox toy's "Fighting Furies" line.

He was the good pirate, there was an evil one too called Captain Hook.
As far as I know, these were the only 2 figures released in the line....but they were great!!
