You and what army?

These armies, bub:


100 Toy Soldiers
Click all ads to Patton-size

200 WWII Soldiers

132 Roman Soldiers

100 Toy Soldiers

Task Force

204 Revolutionary War Soldiers

And when you get tired of toy war, why not move on up to the next level?:
US Government Surplus


Just remember, in the words of Nick Fury:
War is Hell


Isn't that right, Martika?:

  2. Martika is so upset with that wall. All her pleading and pounding fists has no effect! It's almost like some sort of allegory or symbolism for something.

  3. I can't believe that someone actually received toy soldiers! I have been waiting for my Roman Legion since at least 1970.

  4. When I was a kid reading my uncle's old comics, I used to see these ads and get so mad that I couldn't order them myself!
