The 70mm figures pack in a greater amount of detail than smaller sizes. While these scales attract a moderate number of collectors, they are quite specialized in nature.

Others come as small as 15mm (about 5/8 of an inch) and 28mm (a touch over an inch tall), for use in wargaming. Some plastic lines are produced in 70mm scale (about 3 inches tall). While they have the advantage of being quite inexpensive on a per-figure basis, playing with HO soldiers can be frustrating for the uninitiated as the tiny models have a hard time standing up on uneven surfaces, such as the living room rug, and tend to fall over with the slightest nudge, breeze or shake of the table-top. The HO scale is popular with war gamers, as the small size allows for a great many figures to be set up in a limited space. The second most popular scale is about an inch high, which we describe as 'Small Scale.' This scale range is known as HO (pronounced as 2 letters: H - O), and incorporates 1/72nd, 1/76th and 1/87th scales. While we carry plastic soldiers in many different scales, we stock metal figures only in this scale range.

This is the size that most people visualize when they see a toy soldier in their mind's eye, and many know them as 'army men' like the paratroopers in the movie 'Toy Story.' There are more metal and plastic figures produced in these scales than any other. We specialize in these scales, which are considered by most collectors and manufacturers to be interchangeable. These soldiers are big enough to have a good deal of detail, yet small enough to allow you to play with lots of them on a table top. These scales are known as 54mm and 60mm (roughly 1/32nd the size of an average human being). The most popular scales for toy soldier collectors are about 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 inches tall. Toy soldiers can be as small as a 1/2 inch or as large as 3 inches. When deciding what to purchase, there are several factors to consider, among which are Scale, Materials and the Historical Eras of the toy soldier items you are seeking. We offer over 15,000 sets of figures as well as our popular 'playsets,' which are instant collections of plastic figures and accessories that make ideal gifts for the young enthusiast. Plastic soldiers are available unpainted or painted, while the metal toy soldiers we sell are generally painted. One can find plastic and metal figures and accessories in scales from as small as an inch high (25mm) to just about 3 inches tall (70mm). There is a huge variety of toy soldiers available today. If you've never purchased toy soldiers before, you may have no idea what you're even supposed to be looking for. For those who know nothing about these 'little men,' we hope to make your visit here pleasant and informative.
