So my guess is that it's somewhere around 50 yrs old.

The house was built in 1950 so wondered if you had any idea how old it would be ? It looks the same as one of the paratroopers at the top, still with a red berret on and holding a rifle with a bear-net on the end. ( It is the far right hand side soldier in the top picture). Any ieas from what year.<br />p.s. I will keep digging and hopefully find more !Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04989662555855749215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669635333599455136.post-46672549379245734612013-09-11T17:37:11.091-04:002013-09-11T17:37:11.091-04:00Most likely.

(The ones with the light green helmets and where you could change body parts and weapons. I loved these soldiers! They were among my favourites. THERE WERE ONLY SIX SOLDIERS and they came with two green plastic trees of slightly higher than the soldiers and broader too so they could hide behind them,an oak and a fir tree of sorts. Sadly I came home one day to find that my mum had got so fed up with all these soldiers lying around on the floor (and there were dozens and dozens) that she had a raid and put a large number of them in the dustbin, on a day the binmen came to empty them! lol Cest la vie! :o(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669635333599455136.post-74588981285871018212012-11-18T15:47:58.529-05:002012-11-18T15:47:58.529-05:00Thank you!
