[QUOTE]I could never afford the big kits on my allowance they were over 40 bucks. There was one I always dreamed about buying the was called "Omaha Beach" that had many vehicles and troops and a huge battlefield. I would pay very well If I could ever find any of those kits now.[/QUOTE]

If you pick up a copy of Military History magazine on one of the first pages you'll find an add for all of those sets you listed and more. I think the Omaha beach is now $400.00! :eek: Shoulda bought it then! I think its amazing they put that stuff in a magazine, I mean who would spend 400 bucks on plastic army men for their kid?

When I was little I remember getting huge buckets full of WWII Americans, British, Germans, and Japanese and Vietnam US and NVA troops and tanks. Wow what a blast..........wait I'm having a flash back: I also seem to remember digging huge trenchs and holes for them in the back yard while tearring up sod :)

(sigh) those were the days!
