Classic Toy Soldiers is the place to go now. They have the molds now for the Marx Soldiers. I still have a Marx Battleground , Desert Fox and Navarone Playset. When I was young I had many hours and sometimes complete days playing with these playsets.

Growing up in the 2000s, I always wanted to play with WWII toy soldiers and vehicles but they weren’t common sights in most stores. Everything was the 1960s American Marines and Patton tanks in green and tan. I always played with them as if they were Americans and Germans. Finally, as a 20-year-old college student, am I just now getting my hands on lots of these old Marx soldiers, both the originals and the reproductions. These are the best WWII troops money can buy!

This is awesome. With my marx figures me and my brother would mix different era soldiers and have battles. They were very odd looking battle displays. Tanks, half tracks, civil war era cannons, WW11 cannons ect ect. The soldiers would be revolutionary, WWI, WWII, alamo, civil war, spacemen, also 6" giant soldiers. We had a crazy fun imaginative time. Awesome memories! When my brother was getting to old to play me and my cousin one time had a display we had taken an hour to set up. Right when we set it up he barged into the room and hollered ATOMIC BOMB! and threw a huge pillow and whiped out most of our set up. We got pissed at the time but i think of it now and laugh. LOL!

One company made a WWII play set where some the men were on platforms and in pillboxes that had those pull string apparatus like on the back of the talking dolls and action figures. When you pulled the string, the men would move and shooting and explosion sounds would erupt. Anyone else remember those?

I got a Marx Army playset in 1960. When Remco came out with their bazooka, I would shoot it at the soldiers. There was also a bunker that was spring loaded, so when you hit it with the bazooka missile, it would explode. I sure miss that.
