In this episode of James May's Toy Stories Special, James attempts to rehabilitate one of Britain's most derided toys by seeing if Action Man can do what no toy has ever managed - travel faster than the speed of sound.

For decades, Action man has been a disappointment. He promised so much with his eagle eyes, gripping hands and natty outfits. But what has he achieved? Nothing...yet. Breaking the sound barrier and returning him safely to Earth will test James and the team to the limit. Battling high speed physics, unforeseen explosions and catastrophic design setbacks before settling on an supersonic vehicle, James is put to test when finding out if Action Man can redeem himself!
