Pretty much any boy growing up in the last 50 years has played with the classic green army men figurines. These little toys were cheap, virtually indestructible (unless you set them on fire), and were incredibly fun to play with. I have literally had hundreds, if not thousands of wars playing with my green army men, back in the good ‘ole days. These toys really let you use your imagination and bring out the killer in any child.
Now, Josh Warner, founder of Good Art, brings back the nostalgia with a bit of an upscale take on the classic army men. Instead of plastic and being green, these army men are made out of sterling silver and are shinny, based on the classic green army men created by Louis Marx & Co. back in the 1950’s. The Silver Army Men come in 12 different styles, listed below:
- Classic ‘Follow Me’ M16 SIlver Army Man
- Classic Bazooka Silver Army Man
- Classic Charging M16 Army Man
- Classic Flamethrower SIlver Army Man
- Classic Kneeling M16 Army Man
- Classic Machine Gunner Silver Army Man
- Classic Mine Sweeper Silver Army Man
- Classic Mortar Silver Army Man
- Classic Officer 1911 & Binos SIlver Army Man
- Classic Prone M16 SIlver Army Man
- Classic Radio SIlver Army Man
- Classic Sneaky Crawly M16 Silver Army Man
These little figurines come with silver bases and measure between 1.3″ and 2.5″ tall, weigh 1.25 ounces, and are priced between $190 – $250 each. [Buy It]
