Plastic army men toys are one of the cheapest and most popular options when it comes to military toys. Typically they are small and green and come in a variety of fixed poses. They are not action figures so arms and legs cannot be moved. Instead children stand them in various positions and move them about to simulate an imaginary battle.
The smaller sets will include about 40 toy army men and can be found quite cheaply costing about $7. Larger sets can also be found which contain up to 1000 toy soldiers. They are great value for money, costing around $25, but the quality of each toy is often inferior.
When choosing which set to buy you will need to decide on the era. Toy army men sets are available which depict medieval battles, through the Civil War and World Wars up to the current day.
For movie themed toys, the popular Toy Story army men sets are a great choice, offering good quality and value for money. 72 of these little green army men come in a bucket or you can also find a Lego set including soldiers and a Jeep.
GI Joe soldiers are a well known large scale and articulated option. These army action figures are bigger and much more detailed and come with weapons, sounds, real clothing and moveable limbs. For all these features though you do pay more, in fact $10 for a 3.75″ tall figure and more for larger figures.
For kids into army toys and craft activities, model soldiers make a great gift. The Airfix toy soldier range is well liked and the two different sizes of army men can be built and painted before being played with.
