I like these, Renato. I started to add a couple of Solido U.S. Army Packards, but (pic) somehow these little soldiers of the 1940 era caught my eye.

These were popular with kids in the U.S.A. in the late 1930's until production stopped during the war years. After the war, production resumed; but sales dropped over the next several years, especially as plastic replaced metal. I jus thought they might look good near your fine military cars. Enjoy!

PS- I reduced one of your pictures to 800 pixels wide just to see what would happen. It works!

Ixo Ixo or Partworks Ixo? A genuine Ixo has an Ixo part number.
