For those of us boys who grew up in the '50s and '60s, Tim Mee Toys (a subsidiary of Processed Plastic Co.) was a familiar site at the dimestore or supermarket and their now iconic Little Green Army Men fought many a battle on bedroom floors and backyard battlegrounds. Sadly, with competition from overseas, they closed down in 2005 BUT have since re-started their business using the original tooling and all made right here in the States! Re-issued toys are now available and can be purchased via their website Victory Buy. Their website has a more concise history of the company as well as a nice selection of those old favorites.
When they announced the release of this two airplane set I just had to grab it and at $11.80 + shipping it was very affordable. The set includes a Grumman F11F/F-11 Tiger and Lockheed F-104 Starfighter jet, both in light gray plastic. The next two installments will feature the individual planes. Enjoy!
