I remember the cheap little plastic Army men from the 1970s had a Metal Detecting Soldier. I was a Bazooka guy myself but check on ebay for "vintage" plastic army soldiers.

Me and my brother use to have battles with the little army men.We would each set up an army and take turns shooting elastics at each others guys.For artillery we would throw firecrackers at them:laughing9:

Hey Red James
Thanks man, That will be my last resort, I was hoping for something more professional looking.

No problem buddy.It would all depend on how much work you put into it.You get what you give.I just get more satisfaction out of the do it yourself stuff.

A friend of mines little girls use to have quite a few barbies.They only had one ken doll,they got him for free but he didnt come with any clothes and they didnt have any for him.They use to dress ken up in barbie clothes.I told my friend maybe we should market their ken doll and call him "Transvestite ken":laughing7:

Yup keppy but his options are few and far between.One thing you could do is get the ken doll,make a mold out of him and then cast it in lead.You can melt lead one a stove burner if need be.

Well, now you got me thinking that there's a possibility that nobody would come up and bug him while he is detecting wearing Barbie's stuff. Maybe he could buddy up with Johnny West wearing Jane West's clothes?
