G is for Get Shorties!

Or; F is for Follow-up - ABC Marines

Chris Smith sent these two to the blog, and they are well worth the sending . . .

ABC; ABC Copies; ABC Hong Kong; ABC Toy Soldiers; Britains USMC; Dress Uniform; No 1 Dress; Plastic Toy Figures; Plastic Toy Soldiers; Plastic Toys; RAF Paratroopers; RAF Regiment; Small Scale World; smallscaleworld.blogspot.com; United States Marine Corps; US Army Uniforms; US Marines; US Navy; US Plastic Soldiers; USMC;
This is firstly his versions of the ones we looked at the other day, to the left of the rank (first three figures), but to the right are four smaller sub-piracies who have had white gloves and trousers in the past, while retaining black-belts, so clearly close-in hand-to-hand combat experts, all four of them, lovely find!

While here we see them in new colours, but the smaller sub-piracies again; note the different reds of the far-right chap's arm-v-body. This is really what collecting's all about, Swoppet knights? There's 97 lots of them on eBay right now - half mounted, several with tags/packaging - they're not rare, just nice!

But if anyone finds these between now and Christmas, send them to the Blog because they'll be as rare as the above figures and we'd all like to see them!

Cheers Chris, definitely not box-ticking!
