TimMee Cold War G.I.s

So this is kinda cool.  I was just searching around on Amazon, and found these for sale.  $13 a bag for 100 TimMee troops.  Now, as far I knew, these were out of production and not for sale any longer.  I knew you could get the cheap re-sculpted knock offs, but these look like they are coming from the original molds.

 I've always been a fan of these figures.  These are what I grew up with.  I missed the Marx days, and instead fought my battles in the dirt with these guys.  They usually fought some cheap Chinese clones of the Airfix British 8th Army figures which I thought were Vietnamese.  I mean, the hats were similar enough!!  Anyway, I still have all my figures from those days, and they still have the paint on their helmets used to designate their unit.  I divided them all up into squads of 20 figures, each squad sporting a different color helmet.  I could never get enough of these guys, and even today, I rarely pass up a bag if I see them at antique stores or flea markets.

Whether these are really being made by TimMee, or Processed Plastic, or J. Lloyd (the current owner of all those names), I have no idea.  I'm considering contacting J. Lloyd just to find out, and see if they might possibly sell me some to put on my site here.  That'd be pretty cool, plus they would probably go well at shows for the kids and such, or the children of the 80's like myself that could never get enough. If anybody knows anymore about these new bagged figures, I'm all ears.
