    Brought back memories from the 60's for me. I am 65 years old and still have my Navarone Set and my Blue and the Grey. My grandkids played with them on occasions however they outgrew them. My sets are packed and back in the garage. Louis Marx your toys were played by three generations of my family. Thank you !!!!

    BMC has acquired the vintage Marx molds of Japanese troops and Marines. They would make good additional figures to this set. They also got the Russians.

      b : an enlisted man or woman
      c : a skilled warrior
      2 : a militant leader, follower, or worker

      *My favorite* is Conte, because of the wonderful sculpting and ww2 series. Tssd, because of their nice sculpting and civil war figures
      *My least favorite* is Bmc, because of the bad ww2 sculpts, for example the heads were too big. And because of the pricey sets, even though the sets good, i dont think the price is worthy. But not all sets are bad like the iwo jima set! Timee, because of the overly simplistic sculpts and glossy plastic, makes go heugh! But it does make a great stop motion!

      @hochspannunglebensgefahr5339 Před 5 lety +3

      Armored Titan This Iwo Jima Seth was copied of “King and Country.” They made a metal version then BMC worked with them to make plastic versions of the set. So it’s technically not BMC, it’s King and Country.

    @yoshisports1847 Před 3 lety

    Here’s how to make the stickers stick: put some double sided tape on the back of the sticker (white part) then that should work and if you don’t have doubled sided tape you can make double sided tape with normal tape and here’s how: fold one half of the tape backwards then fold the other side of the tape on top of the already folded piece and now it’s double sided, you can always just tape the stickers normally but if you don’t want the tape to show then use my tactic that I just spent five minutes on
