PlastiMarx is the Mexican version of Marx Toys. They tend to be different colors than the Marx figures. There are still Marx figures being made there, mostly the Johnny West figures. But they seem to be being made for collectors.
This figure is very high quality, has the good flat colored plastic used by Marx. The pose may look like he is getting shot but he is actually throwing a grenade. There is excellent animation and detail. I think this figure must be a sergeant as he has a pistol. There is an officer in the last two photos wearing a hat. Note the American Marx figures are green. They are dated MCMLXIII.
Sergeant Grenade Thrower's facial expression shows that he means business in the most serious way.
A russian too idealized to look calm or collected, great piece !~
The determination in this Sergeant's face is amazing. How many examples of these soldiers do you have in your collection?
