Timmee Figures Military Western, I went into the collection to pull some of the Timmee figures I have. Timmee made a wide range of figures. We will look at the Timmee Russians using some of the production from Mexico. Also, I have an anti-aircraft gun and more.

Other Timmee Military Figures
Nice interesting TM collection there you show!!!
The Russian TM are one of best made by TM and to me made by different sculptor,the figures even done in 60 mm can be used with any same scale comrade or foes ,aso as KN Koreand red too as they used alike uniform used by Koreans/Chinese during 50s .
Being fact TM Never did WW2 germans i think these figures were made thinking in Korean war rather than WW2 as GI’S are also Korean era as well buy uniforms and most weapons .Regardless i manage get some these reissues in 90s and also the recast specially commision by Greg LiSKA that come very good made in light resin material.
Funny part i bought so many i resold most nad Greg actually got some back recently from me .
Im looking x more reissues now to do conversion as Greg Recast are great but fragile resin material no good x conversion .
The artillery figure seat in AA gun looks like a german with a Fallschirmjägerhelm or luftwaffe personnel .The cannon i try get before but not luck .
I think another maker made an alike cannon too ..
I though the TM Air force in that color were reissues ,i got a lot then in early 2000 from a seller off show .

Nice shot of the Timmee Russians in green. I’ve only seen them in red; one of the great things about visiting this site. Are they that terribly large? Would they fit the “new” 1/32 scale TSSD and other figures (of course not talking about style or quality of sculpt).
Yes they will go blend match w new CTS,TSSD,STARLUX,MPC,FV,EXF,PP Marx WOW and so on.
No related.
Intersting last two CTS german sets looks giants next to early set.
I think everyone trying to adjust w new other makers .

In 1965 Processed Plastic who had taken Tim-Mee over in the summer of 1964 made a new mold of the Air Force figures. They were slightly thinner than the originals to save on plastic. Although the new mold had 12 cavities it did not contain the figure with rocket/bomb or the or the man looking upward with binoculars, but had duplicates of the two pilots. The new figures made in tan were sold as US Marines in a special Army, Navy & Marines header card set in 1965. Later they were made in red & waxy light gray, but were phased out of production around 1975 and replaced in Air Force bags by the “Vietnam Armymen” molded in blue . This mold still exists and Victory Buy has had the mold run in olive green and light tan and is selling them as part of their Tim-Mee Toy line.
Two years ago, at the Wheeling show, I purchased a full set of the TimMee Russians in the red color from John Stengle JR. he said that his put the set together one at a time over the course of years. Along with them I purchased a Timmee truck in the same color.
