Forward Observer The big guns
rely on one man to get them on target. The forward observer sees the
enemy and calls in the artillery.
He reports the location, then helps direct fire right on target. As
for forward, he is right on the front lines with the infantry. He faces the same dangers while
working to bring artillery support for the
troops. Our forward observer is part of a team. Two riflemen help him by hauling equipment and providing covering fire when needed. They stand by so the spotter can do his work.

Charge! When
ammunition runs out, soldiers still have a means to defend
themselves. The
bayonet. A combat
knife attached to the end of the rifle. In effect, their rifle becomes the
most ancient weapon of all. A
spear. Our charging bayonet guys are posed for action. They rush forward with fixed bayonets, ready to take the battle to the enemy. A man with an automatic rifle provides fire support to the charge. The action is already started with our Bayonet Chargers! Hold a piece of military history right in your hand. The 20th Century version of the ancient spearman is yours to command! Order yours. The Charge set of three soldiers is $74.95 (free postage within the United States) $74.95

Heavy Weapons Team The Heavy
Weapons section gives the infantry an added punch. They get increased firepower from
heavy machine guns. Anti-tank
weapons such as the bazooka and recoilless rifle bring the ability to
attack tanks and bunkers. The heavy weapons section has the extra
firepower for the hard jobs. The heavy
machine gun can put down more firepower than automatic rifles and light
machine guns. It can fire longer, further and faster to give the enemy a
potent pelting of hot lead.
During World War I, the heavy machine gun ruled the
battlefield. In World War II,
it delivered a power punch that sent the enemy
reeling. The bazooka
gave infantrymen a weapon to defend against tanks. It fired an armor-piercing
rocket. Soon enough, the
bazooka was supplemented by an even more impressive infantry anti-tank
weapon. The recoilless rifle
was more accurate, had greater range and a harder punch. It could be fired from the
shoulder or a bipod. The
troops on Okinawa loved it because of its power and
versatility. Our team
comes with a machine gunner, a recoilless rifleman and a man armed with a
tommy gun. This team is ready
to go whenever you need additional firepower.

pillboxes proved a formidable obstacle to American forces in both the
Pacific and European theaters of World War II. The dangerous work of clearing
field fortifications was made possible with two weapons. Hand grenades had been around for
a long time. They were very useful in clearing trenches during the
previous World War. A grenade tossed into a bunker could do the
job The other
weapon was the flamethrower.
Fueled by jellied gasoline, the flamethower spewed a stream of
liquid fire into gunports and any other openings. It was brutal and effective in
rendering bunkers uninhabitable. Our Bunker
Buster set has both the flamethrower man and a grenadier, as well as an
extra rifleman to provide covering fire. They are miniatures of a critical
part of the military history of the Second World War. You can have a miniature piece of
history. The fun starts when you take them out of the box!

Trench Raiders Enemy troops like to set up trench lines between bunkers. Clearing those trenches is dangerous work. This trio of troops is ready for the job. There's a man ready to toss a grenade into an enemy dugout. Beside him is a soldier engaged in close combat with rifle and bayonet. The third man rushes forward to strike at the enemy before they have time to react. This action-packed set has three of the classic poses of genuine toy soldier art. They are copies of some of the most popular toy soldiers of the 1960s and 1970s. The old "Tim- mee" soldiers were sold by the bagful for many years. Today we offer our hand-painted versions of them for your collection. One thing: the Tim Mee figures stand a head taller than the average toy soldier. They are a bit less detailed, but just as animated in their poses. What you get is a set of popular soldiers which are pure Toy Soldier Art. Cool poses. Cool paint jobs. Cool art. The fun begins when you take them out of the box. But then, with these guys it has been going on for almost sixty years
