Default Guadalcanal Playsets

I only have a handfull of these left. These were put together by Green Force toy Soldiers and once they are gone, there won't be anymore.

Those American soldiers look like they have been made with the old moulds from the "Matchbox" soldiers I used to have in the 1970s.

Yes, I find a lot of that in the toy soldier industry. Another example is the same type of airfix figures have popped up from different manufactures. For example the toy soldier foot locker on my website. It is made up of Airfix clones. Ive sold quite of few of these by the way. Ive tried to create things for the entry level collector. If you look at other playsets today, they are quite expensive, unlike the Guadalcanal set thatis only fifteen dollars, vs two hundred to three hundred dolars for other sets.
