Just got a strange little army man in a box lot of toys. It's marked 1973 and it's a little semi-stationary soldier, molded with base made to look like a mound of mud and bricks. It has a small lever on the bottom that,to the best of knowledge, has no purpose other than it clicks and makes the soldier move about 1/2 inch side to side at the waist. I'm assuming that the clicking noise is supossed to sound like the popping of his gun.

Darn! Palitoy beat me to it again. Ditto what he said. I have a little collection of these growing a little bigger every so often. I do not see these a whole lot. Then again I have not bothered looking for them in a while now. I think they are kind of neat. I had the blue SWAT set as a kid. Now I have a couple of the SWAT vans and a bunch of the SWAT figures and some of the Army guys.Enjoy what you like, and let others enjoy what they like. (C) Azrak 2009

I am pretty sure that my original set came from Sears. My family were real big Sears shoppers. I still have most of the store catalogs to prove it. I can still remember seeing a lot of the cool 70's toys on the shelves there like it was yesterday. Definitely good times for a kid.Enjoy what you like, and let others enjoy what they like.
