MPC RIng Hands
The running man pose seems the most difficult to find.
I was lucky to get several of them at the toy show.
I have also been lucky enough to get some of the weapons and accessories.
Mike: I have ALWAYS liked these guys since I was a young kid (and that's a lot of years ago. I wish I still had ALL the ones I used to have, along with their gear. I miss seeing those BAGS of them at the "five and dime" stores...for UNDER A BUCK!
The "grease guns" are hard to come by, as are .56 pistols. I have managed to get a "combat squad" back together with some accessories. (live to get another PT boat, though) And yes, age takes it's toll on the plastic belts and life vests (more than the figures themselves)...the tabs break off and they don't "buckle".

Carry on.
Yes, G these are my favorite figures of all time. I keep hoping someone will recast the Marx WWII weapons for them!
