Commando 5963 (Home of Heroes): Commandos Vs Cowboys

High noon in the town of San Cavino. Two gunslingers. One victor.

Nazi Cowboys have formed the despicable SS George Washington Legion, terrorising Allies and civilians in Northern Italy. That's where SAS Major Hugh Hulke comes in. He knows the area and can assist Captain Andrew Ashe and his elite Commando unit in taking down the turncoats. But is Hulke out for justice - or revenge?

Commando 5964 (Gold): Hero on Horseback

How do you attack a Nazi Panzer supply base guarded by huge Tiger tanks? Do you use bombs? Or rockets? Perhaps artillery? 

Not if you're Captain Brad Blake, you don't. You charge with your own roughneck, bareback cavalry!

Commando 5965 (For Action and Adventure): What Are You Doing Here?

Although currently tied to a chair in a medieval church, Private David Taylor could climb like a monkey and talk the hind legs off a donkey. But, fuelled by coffee, cruelty and a desire to push back against the Normandy Invasion, Hauptmann Lange only wanted to know one thing from Taylor… What Are You Doing Here?

Commando 5966 (Silver): The Last Raiders

On foot, in a foreign land, with every police force and army unit on the alert for them, a small bunch of Italian sailors tried desperately to get over the border to the safety of Mexico. 

What were they doing in the USA in the first place? Well, it started when they raided a big American harbour, thousands of miles from their home, in a midget submarine!
