My dad grew up in this era, it's where I got my love for army men from. He had the desert fox playset and I still have some of the figures/vehicles from it to this day! Love these videos of playsets

Just wanted to thank you for recommending the SCS WWII 200 army men set! I've been painting a set of them and I'm blown away by the detail for the price! So fun to paint!

Merry Christmas! Was going through my Reddit comments and came across the channel again, remember back when you mentioned the 200 sub special lol How time flies, GGs on 2.4k!

This to date is my favorite armymen sets I still have mine from 1963 I traded a extra German soldier set for two tank 51s a few years ago I recently saw one bay that just one tank 51 went for 300 dollars I guess when my grandson gets a little older I will pass them down to him when he can appreciate them and take care of them like I did by the way I love your vidios keep on making them !

i love your videos

My buddy had that set when I was a kid, and I had the "Iwo Jima" one with the tan Japanese soldiers. Maybe I missed it, but you don't seem to have my favorite American guy - which was a tripod-mounted heavy machine gunner (we called it a set-up machine gun when I was a kid). Also you asked about the tank. It appears to represent an M-26 Pershing, or perhaps a Korean War M-46 Patton (which was nearly identical). My buddy's German set came with tanks (representing Panthers) and trucks, too.

the little raft had a army man with a paddle that fit in it. I am 70 and had one of these sets think sears sold them

I have a few sets and my navarone play set are my favorite cool buy

HURRAY!!!! I finally got my soldiers, they came yesterday afternoon, cost me nearly £300 altogether. I now have all the colours of the rainbow including pink ones too.

I got my mini BMC toys order yesterday, I bought the tree set!

I wish you a merry Christmas

bro i love your army men collections and merry christmis

Ahh nuts, I've been slapped with a £51.15 customs chare on my BMC package!!!!

Merry Christmas!

I received my Normans and Viking in the last couple of days, I'm still waiting for my Zulus, Ninjas, English civil war soldiers and and my BMC toys hoard. Next time I will be getting some blue American revolutionary soldiers and some Spanish vs US soldiers!!!! I'll let you know when they are delivered!!!!

Marx products have probably become one of my favorites as I've gotten deeper into collecting, along with Tim Mee as they're the ones I grew up playing with the most. I recently picked up a complete Marx 1950's Fort Apache for my Dad for Christmas, and seeing his reaction was priceless as he'd been talking about having it as a kid for as long as I can remember. There's just something so cool about the Marx playsets and the neat variety of accessories and details they include. They're a little pricey for me to go looking for too often, BUT, the Marx Battleground set is definitely one I want to add to the pile one of these days.

Merry Christmas commander🎄

I'm looking foreword to your next video. I always look forewords to them I must say. Your channel is my favourite on YT. I'm thinking of starting up my own toy army men channel!!!!

Marx battleground play sets debuted in 1958 and last Marx battleground play set sold was 1984 as a Marx product 1982 Louis Marx passed away the Toy King of the worlds largest toy manufacture featured in Time magazine 1955.

I'm waiting for a really big order from BMC toys and I'm also waiting for my order of Ninjas, Normans and Zulus too. I'm also going to buy some English civil war soldiers, both round heads and cavaliers. I've been anticipating your new video, thanks for uploading it.

I also had a Marx-a-copter. Remember that?

i got BMC yorktown set (12 british) 11 americans and 11 french and by the toy soldier Co. British infantry D-day and also Merry boxing day

Hey Plastic Commander! I just recently discovered your channel and just had to subscribe, your videos are a major nostalgia trip for me! This might seem like a weird question, but in your travels and collecting have you ever come across ninja army men? When I was little back in the 80s I distinctly remember having two sets of different styles of ninjas. One set was ninjas with swords molded in black fighting samurai molded in grey. They were all slightly smaller than your average army men that come in those Timmee packs, but were pretty detailed. The other set were a little larger, but less detailed and were molded in black, white, and grey. They had a bunch of different poses with different weapons like bows, staffs, swords, and nunchuks. Does any of this sound familiar? I've tried scouring google and ebay, but I can't find much information and a lot of searches get muddled due to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle line.

I soooo need the "late to the office" soldier in my life. Super cool. Great video :)

How much army men do you have? Because there is a hefty amount of them in your collection!😂

Any new videos coming out soon?
