Incredible collection: One-Sixth Scale Soldiers of WW2
A fascinating story surrounding the creation of an incredible collection of 73 WW2 One-Sixth Scale Soldiers representing every country that fielded an army in that conflict.
These figures were created by Juan Lopez, a resident of Ottawa, Canada. He had a tailor assist him with this project. Juan is a member of the Ottawa chapter of the Ontario Model Soldier Society (OMSS).
This video refers to the Ottawa chapter of the Ontario Model Soldier Society. This is a club for toy soldier enthusiasts in the Ottawa area that meets once per month at The Barley Mow restaurant in Nepean, 1541 Merivale Road. Some of the members of the Ottawa chapter live a 60 or 90-minute drive from The Barley Mow restaurant. Details regarding the dates and times for meetings of the Ottawa chapter can be found on the "OMSS Ottawa" Facebook Group. New members are welcome.
Membership in the Ottawa chapter of the Ontario Model Soldier Society offers a broad range of benefits to toy soldier collectors.

Thank you for the generous comment.
If you have to dress them up, they are dolls, not toy soldiers.

These One-Sixth figures, including their uniforms, weapons, and accessories, are incredibly accurate. A significant amount of work goes into researching the authenticity of the uniforms et cetera. Some collectors do not consider One-Sixth figures to be "toy soldiers". Different courses for different horses.

@@OntarioModelSoldierSociety I was a bit harsh. I remember my younger brother getting the original 1960's GI Joe figures and we teased the hell out of him. But, I grew up with Britains Herald and MARX, MPC, TIMMEE, Crescent, Timpo and the like. I ended up just wanting to re-build a part of my childhood collection and now... I have way too much.
