MARS Toy Soldiers - Ukrainian Defenders

Interesting that MARS Toys soldiers are manufactured in the Ukraine.

 

Good Morning Vietnam on Veteran's Day

Happy Veterans Day!

Always nice to wake up to a pretty face. The figure was made by Thomas Gunn Miniatures. 

Custom Marx Training Center Buildings and Diorama

A few years ago, I was looking for some vintage Marx tin litho buildings for an Army training base diorama. I found a seller on Ebay who made custom buildings of typical buildings and facilities you'd find on a military base. These are made of tin and the signs, windows, accessories are stickers. They look top notch and work really well. Here are the custom ones followed by a larger Army base diorama.

Warhorse Miniatures

I recently went to the annual Gettysburg Toy Soldier show. I didn't walk away with much, but I did find these awesome new resin Native American sets from www.warhorseminiatures.com - the owner was there displaying all his cool things. He had a bunch of Plains Indian teepee sets which aren't listed on his website yet.
