Fun playful set from Matchbox that was made to rival Airfix Combat Packs back in the mid 70s. Lot´s of fun little details and action packed weapons. 'Legionnaire' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au

Just had to get these opened right away. Made a mess in my little home studio but it´s all worth it when I get to see what´s inside.

The "regular" Combat Pack is not as rare as the Desert Combat Pack but none the less a very cool playset. 'Legionnaire' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au

1975 set with 11 figures but only 4 fighting poses.

One of the most fun and different sets Airfix released in 1/32 scale. Asking for help to find out what teams the figures my father painted are.

Never had any of the 2000s recasts of the 1/32 scale figures. So I bought some to compare. Found some good stuff and some not so good.

13 different figures in a box of 15 is pretty darn impressive. As always the Matchbox figures are fun and with great details.

Want to do more comparsions between the different figures of the same kind. In this case the officers from the first nine sets Airfix produced. This was supposed to be a short video but I just keep talking. Hopefullt it´s not to long.

Third and last video on the American West serier from Airfix. 7th Cavalry. While putting this video together I came to the realisation that this is perhaps the best set Airfix ever did. Details are top notch and the poses are interesting, dynamic and varied. They work great for both play and painting. Now I just have to get some loose figures to paint. Agree or disagree?

Second video on the american west series Airfix did back in the early 70´s. As in the last video on the american west series I show some of the figures my dad´painted back in the 70s.

1 out of 3 videos on the Airfix American West series. Fun and nice with something that´s a bit outside the regular toy soldier theme from Airfix. This is of course the Cowboy set and later I will ad the Indians and 7th Cavalry sets.
