My thoughts and opinions on the 54mm/60mm Plastic Toy Soldier collecting hobby. Yes I seemingly rant at times and we explained in one of the first posts that we would be. So if you do not like that sort of stuff we suggest you leave NOW. Also look for some thoughts on history, informational posts and a bit of fun stuff from time to time.

Marx Madness ?
OK you remember we mentioned that MARX Custer set that was on EBAY for that obscene price. Well it seems the seller (MARXTOYMUSEUM) now selling a set on a piece by piece basis on EBAY. What little I know of this seller comes from a few friends and an issue of Playset Mag. IMHO most do not like the "owner" at all. Real or imagined he has one heck of a reputation in the MARX hobby. If it is true didnt Louis Marx Jr do his homework ? I am also confused that he is selling items yet he enjoys a non-profit status again thanks to Louis Marx JR we are told, and he sells/offers different degrees of Museum Memberships on an annual basis. And did we mention that he also operates a web site called the Marx Connection where, you guessed it, he also sells Marx items. Are these excess property of the Museum ? Part of his personal collection ? oh well. Nice job if ya can get it. More to come no doubt.
