WW1 Marines (1 Viewer)

Hi - this is my first post for the sake of discussion. Do you think there would be an interest for World War One Marines? I am thinking action sequences from Belleau Wood. Maybe a USMC column marching to the front with flag bearers? As a Marine, I have enjoyed the Marines from K&C, John Jenkins and others. Thoughts???

I'm more of a "combat pose" guy rather than a "marching to the front" guy, but I'd love to see some WWI Marines.

ONTC makes a set called "Devil Dogs at Belleau Wood:"

This is a double set of World War I U.S. Marines made by Hiriart (traditional, glossy 54mm) last summer for a USMC Viet Nam veteran.

Thanks for the suggestions - I really like the ONTC set. For now, I'll keep my fingers crossed for additional Marines with a hope for WW1 action poses. Semper Fi

SemperFi LAV25!4 in the Corps myself.WW1 jarheads looked every bit like their line doggie 2nd I.D
buddies(except for the swagger,of course).Usually no markings on the uniforms-some Marines may have
installed the EGA(my bad) on the front of his helmet or painted same,but usually when their issue green
uniform wore out,Army issue was next.Could always tell an FNG as he arrived in country in green.
I have many WW1 Gyrenes in 54mm.Hell,I've got 'MANY' of waaaaay too much as it is now.
Take care Randy
