Made in China vs Made in USA Army Men

Stop Motion - Battle of Lexington and Concord
Where did you ge those brown army men?
Alixpress although they seem to come in different colors depending on when you search for them
And this, Rachel Levine, versus Chinese example?????
Awesome, id like to ask you where did you get these green soldiers? I noticed thst they are glued to cleer plastic or some other kind of material so im guessing these are 3d printed? I also noticed that they look like they have cuts on their feet, did you cut them of they're baseplates?
The green soldiers are actually part of a less common set, they're the US Army set by Viikondo. The original baseplates were detachable and too large for stop-motion purposes, so I substituted some clear plastic and glued them on
@@respectmyauthoritah8817 Viikondo? I've seen they're Shopee store but they don't have those so I'm guessing you bought it on Ebay maybe Amazon? Or do they have they're own online store
Actually they're on Alixpress although I think they do have their own site too
Very nice, i think you should turn up your fps a bit it looks pretty choppy,maybe to 8 or 10. The sounds are really good could you make a Public playlist of the sounds? I would really like to use them in some of my stopmotions. I really like that its mostly about the battle, gives me more entertainment!
Chinese army men have a lot of varying quality depending on manufacturer and price. Most of my collection (~97%) are Chinese soldiers, and I can say confidently that they vary from decent to near-flat 2d figures.
Pay your respects to every civilian and soldiers who died😢
i thing most of my army men are made in usa
do you have tiger and shermen tank? using those tank will so cool.
I don't have those models right now, although if I do get them down the line I'll use them for sure
The Chinese ones have more character, they feel like something a kid would have
one more thing. just a suggestion if you can make invasion of norway in ww2 or battle of liege in ww1 but like i said just a suggestion
thank you for doing my suggetstion
Nice
Green tank superior. White tank inferior. ^_^ Another awesome one! Keep it up!
nice forts
can you make army men video about el aimein
Like the Pirates,what brand are they?
Those are by Mars, it's the Caribbean pirate set
@@respectmyauthoritah8817 Thank you!
Another cool one! I remember watching this on the news and stuff. I'm old.
❤❤❤😊😊😊😢😢😮
Bro I love your stop motion videos
These are so fun to watch! Can't wait for the next one! ^_^
Pretty cool dude!!!
Another great video!
The difference is that chinas is more smoother and not messy and USA is more detailed and lighter green
Belo curta amigo, continue com bom trabalho, saudações do Brasil deixo meu apoio 👍
Great animation, congrats 🫡
China has only got us beat in riflemen and Scout, everything else is they get owned in.
The CCP watching this: CCP: No our plastic is better.
commander Wang Shen-Ming's last phone say '' I see chinese army break into commander center, we try our best, I leave a hand grenade...'' , after he say, he detonated the grenade in his hand
I read about that part. I wanted to include it in the video too but wasn't sure how to animate it
Fact: the ‘pointing pose’ for USA was actually a grenade thrower, but the mould broke in the 80s, and they replaced with a hand. The China poses (True Heros) actually re-sculpted the grenade back in his hand which is useful (i have). The China poses (True Heros) are called the ‘Bizzaro Timmees’. Timme Toys are the USA ones. They basically are similar to each other (except for officer). Also, the reason they are called china poses is because they copied True Heros, (discontinued brand with army men). So theres some history for ya😊
These aren’t true heroes army men, there is a company called Vi!Kondo in China that makes knockoffs of the true heroes poses. These are VI!KONDO army men. Not true heroes, true heroes is much higher quality than this. These are not true heroes, they have a much much better quality than this and aren’t derpy and sad. Do more research if you’re gonna make a comment and call it history.
Love it! Another great video! The funniest part is the long pause at 2:51 before they just start executing people. That ship was also cool! It was the MVP of the battle!
Great video, I need to extend mine too like you do, even no dialogue can be longer animations
They studied theirr own army
The China version is crap
Your channel is really good at focus on historical events. BTW whats the manufacture for the tans? New subscriber here
Thanks, the history is definitely a huge part of the inspiration for this channel. The tan guys were by BMC Toys. A lot of the sets I use on this channel are actually by them
Nobody really talks about this battle I'm glad you did it
Thanks! I wanted to do this battle because it was one of the real times in history where 2 armies were so different, technologically.
Oh also the US Didn't have muskets They used the Springfield 1873 I think
@@CertifiedBC I just read a bit more on it and looks like you're right. They were using single shot 1873 rifles which are actually breech loaded, not muzzle loaded like muskets. So they would've been faster than muskets but still much slower than the rifles Spain was using.
This is my favorite one so far. So many funny moments. Great job as always! ^_^
Bro forgot those dumb 1cm army mens who breaks like they where atoms
Nice stop montion
Aqui no Brasil, nas décadas de 1980 e início da de 1990, a fabricante "Gulliver" lançou alguns modelos de soldadinhos de plástico muito bem feitos com a mesma qualidade da fabricante original dos EUA, a "Tim Mee Toy". Realmente, os fabricados na China são de qualidade muito inferior, não valem a pena comprar para colecionar. Saudações a todos os colecionadores de soldadinhos de plástico aí nos territórios de língua inglesa. 🇧🇷😉
Nice video,keep it up
Best one yet! I love seeing the little improvements each time. My favorite part in this one was probably the sniper and the rocket guy duelling but the funniest part to me was the two guys shooting at the tank before just being blasted at 0:58
The ones made in the US better
Sensacional, deixo meu like e inscrição 👍
Great job!!
Yo this is well put together
grreat video keep doing them
Cool video! I laughed when the guys run up just to turn around and get the hell out of there instantly at 1:20.
Wow! This is the best one yet! So much action the whole way through! My favorite part in this one is the casual way the one guy fires the single pistol shot at 2:18. There's tons of stuff going on and he just leans in fires 1 shot then gets back down and goes "Alright, that's my contribution!" Very funny! ^_^
new sub
Awesome as always! The guy saving his barrel is the best part. It's fun to imagine the others all screaming at him to leave it but he won't listen.
