Toy Revolutionary war soldiers

Bit of nostalgia for you - do you remember this ad? Was in the DC/Marvel comics back in the day. Fired my imagination and I remember wishing I could have this set. I have subsequently seen the figures in the flesh and they aren't that good. But that's the appeal of these old adverts - they promised the world. See the figures here

 This portrayal is 2 years in the making. Von Donop 1776. By Marshall Beresford.  Very good. Check out his Facebook page here .
