great find. lots of paint left on that one. I think we all need to give Subterranean a round of applause for his help on ID's and valuable knowledge of toy figures. He's an asset to the forum.

I agree 1000 percent! Subterranean saw my Deep sea diver and had it figured out in no time flat! Thank you for all your help Sub!

Thank you for the kind words jewelrguy. I am always honored to help our fellow TNetters with my limited knowledge of old toys. I am a self admitted old-toy nerd. Amazingly, I have not dug up an old lead soldier figure myself. Still on the bucket list. I have many old dog-eared reference books to help out! Lance
