You really know your stuff I use to have a lot of the smaller airfix and esci figures but my brother had more of these kinds.

I was one of those kids who sent away $4.95 plus shipping for a Splinter 8 back in the late 70's! It wasn't exactly as great as I had hoped it would be, but I shot it until it broke itself apart! Check out my response to your initial post for info about that UZI you wondered if they ever built!

The big blue army men were Peco that had accessories first ring hand soldiers early fifties very popular but expensive they were copied by MPC in a smaller size ring hand soldiers with accessories that were cheaper in price.

Yes Marx was the best play sets made since or now they hold their value even today. My first battle ground play set Christmas 1963 the year they came out with the German soldiers.

Nice button commentary, where would I find prices or values for these type buttons?

😎👍

At annual toy soldier show in Chicago, the old timers there can identify anything.

14:55 Soft Polyethylene figures can turn brittle with age, as the pthalate plasticizers in the plastic compound leach out. This varies by manufacturer and, as it seems, even from production batch to production batch, but the figures last longest if kept in a dark place at room temperature.

Why do Americans call them "Army men"? Was it originally a brand name, or something?

Very cool! Yeah looks black like silver that was my first guess too

I used to run to the magazine isle when we went to the grocery store to flip to the back of the gun mags to see these! Never got one but drooled for years.

You sure those were Marx? Marx was superior in detail and it said Marx on the bottom. If it didn’t, they weren’t Marx .

My uncle had a file he kept his in.

I have 2 unopened boxes. The toys come in an egg shape, the kind you get from a gum ball machine. I bought them for $1 each and dying to know what the toys are, but i will not open them. I will sell them to a vintage dealer one day. They are worth approximately $12 each, maybe more as time has gone by. Awesome toys!!

Thank you for sharing this with us. KC1TWE

I have one with my name on it "MITCHELL"! Cool spots along that river bud!!!

Very cool spot, I've spent a lot of time picking piles like that. The International Brick Collectors Association will be having a brick swap near Normal, IL in May. I highly recommend going if you're free. I think they're planning one for the Quad City area as well. It's a lot of fun and the best way to pick up a bunch of awesome bricks fast.

Very cool 😊

That Lacleade Fire Brick is a good one. Lots of people collect old bricks. I love finding them here in Cleveland Ohio. Grab all the solid ones that you can.

Hi. I’ve just recently found your posts on here and instagram as well and I love your content! I’m in southern Illinois about 40 minutes from downtown St. Louis and wanted to know more about Cracker Jack prizes and came across your videos. Just bought a metal detector since you’ve gotten me interested in relic hunting. Keep up the great stuff; you make awesome videos. 👍🤟

The light colored bricks are called cinder blocks. There used to line the inside of a furnace. They are made of 8 to 25 percent asbestos and are considered hazardous waste material!

Oh, so they were made in China

It’s a Plymouth. Pull over by that rock that looks like a Plymouth

Pretty cool 👍

I forgot to mention, the vessel in the thumbnail photograph is the steamboat “Alton”. She was launched in 1906 and crushed by ice in 1918.

This pistol (without the crazy grips} and then a later variant that looked like a P38/Luger version. Were sold in a small toy store in a local mall near my house in Delta, British Columbia Canada. The store was full of Hong Kong sort of imports. The silver BB's were sold in translucent blue celephane bags that the store clerk kept in a big jar and would sell individuallt to us. I loved these guns as a kid, bought many of them and my house and neighborhood had those silver bb's rolling around from me and my friends.

It’s sad that somebody lost their ring but 🍀 good that you found it 👍🏼

cool beans

I remember cutting these out as kid. Longing for the day my parents would let me get them or I could afford it myself. Great video!!

That belt goes with the army uniform from before 1943. The M41 dress jacket had brass hooks in the back for it.

The thing on the back of the button is called a toggle.
