Yes, both the Airfix cavalry and Sioux warriors are a perfect match with Marx cavalry and Sioux.

I will try but I can assure you that the CTS mounted Sioux will go fine with Airfix and Marx Plains Indians. Marx, CTS, BMC and Airfix Plains Indians all go well together. Same with the Marx, BMC and Airfix 7th cavalry, almost perfect match. They won't go well with TSSD and Paragon because the...

I have all of them. TSSD do not go with Airfix, Marx, and the other traditional 54MM Sioux. The CTS mounted Sioux will go better with Airfix and Marx. TSSD Sioux have very thick bodies and look out of proportion to the Marx and Airfix. This also goes for the BMC Sioux. They are decent but also...

Yes, and I take no satisfaction in saying that either. T hey have given us so many good sets for over 25 plus years. Their Alamo Mexicans, their Japanese WW2, Hessians, WW2 Germans with medical and WW2 US were great. A few missteps in the past as all makers have had. But these marines are the...

It's really unfortunate, I have mixed feelings regarding CTS on these. I'm truly sorry that these will likely be a failure as CTS has made some great figures for over 25 years. But I'm somewhat ticked off at them for producing these, they should have sent them back to be re-worked, I can't...

That's it in a nutshell. These are way, way too large. Don't know what happened, can't figure why CTS would have allowed these to be put out there Don't they get test shots first? How did these pass muster? They won't sell. So, it will be back to using the TSSD and CTS world war 2 sets instead...

Do you have the MPC Japanese? They are not too hard to get on Ebay and they really have some good poses. I know some feel MPC is not a good maker but they go perfect with Marx and Airfix, maybe a little tall for Japanese but I really like them and the poses are very good. Atlantic Japanese are...

CTS japanese work very well with Marx and Airfix. You would also want to get the MPC japs if you can. And the TSSD are pretty good also. As to Oliver, those would be too large to go with Marx, Airfix, etc. They are around 58-60 mm. Not sure yet about the Mars japanese, they might work but could...

Yes I agree. Way too high a price, I doubt they will sell. If they were reasonably priced I'd probably get them but the fact is WWI has been very well covered by AIP, the real gap in this era is artillery pieces with crews and maybe heavy MG with a crew also. Someone should do that, I'd guess...

Those are IMEX. They came in a somewhat hard plastic. Interesting thing was all IMEX civil war were put out in 1/72 scale, then 1/32. The last set in 1/72 was "Confederate Infantry". But for some reason the 1/72 scale set did NOT get put out in 1/32. The poses were modified, e.g. the officer...

Well, I can't blame Tony for trying to be creative here. The key to all makers is profit. Using the French Napoleonics is certainly not a stretch, lots of collectors use both British, French and Prussian as Mexicans. Civil war rebs as Texas defenders, that's pushing it a bit. The rest of the...

They will work together. The Weston bandits are thicker, chunkier particularly the heads but height wise they work. Get the Reisler bandits, you won't regret it.

There are 2 sets. AIP's very first set circa 1998 or so was the WWI American doughboys in 8 poses. AIP then did a 2nd set of 8 poses a few years ago. The poses in the second set are completely different save for the advancing with bayonet pose, it's a little similar to the first set but is a...

I had just about all of them. 6 poses each, very well sculpted. Marines, Germans, Japs, Russians of WW2. Cowboys, Indians, Frontiersmen, Cavalry. Man from UNCLE, Spies, Universal Monsters, Marvel Super Heroes, Vikings, Knights, Cavemen, Astronauts. All unpainted soft plastic. For the 8 to 11...

Very well done figures. And personally, I like the idea of non plug-in arms, heads, etc. Just a personal choice, I don't like to "put together" plastic figures, Louis Marx never did that. Granted it does give some variety, so that's good for many collectors. Biggest beef is sometimes the plug...

This is great news! Just when I was beginning to lose hope in new products, these come out. Look good and as previously stated they go great with TSSD so a nice group of figures representing the 4 main combatants in the Vietnam war, which as we know has never been covered. Now, I have to get...

Wow, great comparison shots! Looks like the NVA will go perfectly with TSSD! Interesting the comparison shot with the old Timmee GI's, the Mars NVA are slightly bigger. Now, I've seen the Mars VC next to the Timmee and they match exactly, so that confirms that the Mars VC are slightly smaller...

They are 1/32 scale. Should go well with TSSD. I've seen comparison photo's with the Mars Marines and GI's next to TSSD marines and looks like a good match. As to the Mars VC, they do look a little small but I think this was done purposely by Mars. The Mars VC are thinner and slightly smaller...

More good news: The CTS North Koreans are here. Go to their web site. Look good. Long wait but finally here.

Yes the recent CTS Germans with gun crews and medical guys are a good match with Conte Germans. As are Marx originals. TSSD are actually a good match as well if you can ignore the large bases. And believe it or not the original Airfix Germans are a good match with Conte. And the CTS Germans are...
