Can anyone ID these little toy soldiers??

[mazinz]

I have had these for a number of years and had always thought they were quite cool.

NOTE: that these are two different collections. The row on the top was one collection I am trying to find the name for again (these are about 2 1/2-3 inches tall). The ones on the bottom are more comical in appearance and are about a half inch shorter than the ones on the top row of my picture. The bottom row ones also had soldiers and the enemies for them looked more space like (as you can see in the pic)

Both toy lines came out around the same time and were sold at a variety of stores, though I think it was a non major toy label that put both out.

Years are roughly late 90's to early 2000's.

Does anyone know what either line was called? I want to try and find more of them, thanks again--

These are the knock offs, I have the originals,they came in different sorts of military badges.

For the life of me I can't remember what they are called

[mazinz]

I never saw originals. From what I can remember both figures came on blister card with like 3-4 soldiers each. One of the two had them split into sets (like arctic crew, airborne, etc) on the back off the blister card

[toys2cool]

yeah the originals were more detailed and came one on a card with a large badge that you could use as storage and hang on your belt,and they had a few weapons

I use to have the whole set

they were like the top ones though, not the bottom row

[mazinz]

well if you can come up with anything please let me know--

By chance I just found what I assume to be the originals on ebay. They were called "military muscle men" though this guys asking price is insane

These remind me of the Bone Brigade Ghost battalion stuff.

Military then space. I loved them so much I wrote a letter and they promised Knights were coming next.

Line was cancelled. :-(

The bottom row looks like figures from a Fisher Price playset.

I can def say they are not from Fisher price but some no name company out of Hong Kong. Though do you mean the MAC men (not the old matchbox ones but the new collection with a similar name)

Hmmmm....

The firat and last guys in the second row are ripoffs of something.... I've seen a NON super-deformed version of that skinned cyborg guy somewhere.... And the first one was the bad guy leader from something.... but I can't remember what....
