I grew up in the 50's and 60's with those wonderful play sets, I still have!
I remember during Christmas Sears stores would convert the Lawn and Garden Dept into a huge toy store.
Playsets, train sets, and race car sets were setup on large display boards
Independence Day, 2022 brought me here- with much nostalgic gratitude!
I'm 68 and you've opened up a whole new world to me. I think all your stuff is incredibly cool and fun. Been into vintage Lionel electric trains for 40 years, but now I would love to get into these playsets. Thanks for sharing.
Such a great set. As was so typical of the Marx playsets back then, the play value was almost beyond belief! Louis Marx knew what young boys (and a few girls probably!) loved. His overall edict to his playset developers was "put as much in these sets as we can". Always put in plenty of figures but the accessories! Cannons, horses, rocks, trees, the great tavern, rev war era furniture, flags. Just unbelievable. On this set just one minor quibble: only 6 poses of redcoats! Rare for Marx, usually did 8 to 10 poses (as he did for the colonials in this set). But, the poses were very well done for the redcoats, so I'm sure kids loved it. Besides, we kids usually added in a few Indian allies for the redcoats to even the odds!
What a beautiful set. I love stuff like this. If only there was a reissue of these.
Fantastic set! Thank you for great material.
i saw the movie and i would have loved to have this set!
Fantastic 😊
Thanks! It's great to hear from you!
The Sears catalog was my wish list!
Sweeet. Guy who lived behind me had a generic set, and I finally squeezed a standing firing Colonial out of him and have him to this day,
Rare! RARE!
This is GREAT! But your audio is out of sync with the video. I love Marx playsets!
Love Marx toy soldiers!I have a few.
you could use the rocks as jello molds. with a little spray paint and a couple firecrackers added play value
What a spectacular set of figures! I wonder if anyone painted them up?
ONE if by Land, TWO if by Sea....
" ... striated ... " = STRY'-EH-TED"
It's 1957 all over again. (*s i g h *)
Are the British actually Hessians? Andy not Annmarie
Sharp eyes! Those guys advancing with rifles do look like them! So fun
I think they might be representing grenadiers which have similar headwear.
@@BattleAxe1345 Great! Thank you very much!
@@annmarieblanc6363 No worries!
4:50 Laughing at the British "Running home" is cruel. They were only there to put down the insurgent revolt. Just doing their job.
