| These figures are superb! I love seeing the early '60s guys in full original kit! (And sometimes, in your photos, full original with improvements kit!)
Your research into the original releases continues to impress me, as does the depth and scope of your collection.
Looks like Frank Sinatra had better mind his manners, because the Shore Patrol is out in force! _________________ ... DAVE

| Wow Paulie, you have a most impressive collection! I really love the way you have organized your figures. I hope you don't mind me posting a photo of a few of my swabbies. Thanks, Brian | |

| I loved that "musical" USO show photo-story! Happy to see an excerpt from it again! _________________ ... DAVE

| Agree with you on those Cotswold pea-coats! Fantastic! And the "Otis Young" bash is a real beauty! But I'm a bit worried over the look of those flesh coloured-batons your boys are brandishing! Are you sure they didn't come from an altogether ......er, "different" set? Maybe a little paint job might go a way to allaying any misinterpretations....? I've got a Shore Patrol Man amongst my Navy Boys. I'll see if I can get a pic of him. Of course the outfit is MAM, and not VAM,....but it might make an interesting comparison. |

| So here's my G.I. Joe MAM Navy Shore Patrolman. His uniform was carded and I've added the handcuffs and the probably non-uniform type of baton just because I thought they looked good. Unlike the_pauley, I cannot attest to any authenticity but I thought it might make an interesting comparison. So the pants be tucked into the boots and bloused, maybe webbing spats...or were the trouser legs just left out over the boots? (Sorry about the pretty ordinary posing, but as he's usually only required to stand with my other Navy boys on a shelf, I've used one of my less articulated MAMs to wear the outfit. So he's one of my men that are into S&M.......Stand and Model! ) |
