60mm Ring Hands

Belt and SMG in a dress uniform, good for military police.

Rifle and life belt for the running man.

Two colors but four different accessories.

Group photo.

Gold, green, red, blue and many different accessories to make a lot of different troops.

Accessories

Helmets, belts, life belts, even holsters and pistols.

I liked to give each figure at least one weapon or tool.

More important figures got two items.

They had plenty of different rifles.

Important figures got three, even four accessories.

Crusing

The seated figures feet fit into special holes in the deck to secure him in place.

Tim Mee dog, I like my troops to have a mascot.

Helmets and accessories are typically silver but I did pick up a few green ones in the 1970's.

Very old MPC figure in trench coat, some of the very old ones don't have the hole in the base.

He is a slot hand figure and pre-dates the ring hand figures.

PT boats can fight each other, larger boats, barges, and deposit landing parties on the beach.

A small patrol of four PT boats has eight torpedoes, enough to sink a battleship.

Cruising along.

PT Boats

Four boats patrolling in line.

The torpedoes can take a rubber band and actually fire!

Ring hand figures by MPC some with life jackets.

Some wear helmets and ammo belts.

Figures have a hole in the base so they attach to the ship and don't fall overboard.

Doggie is Tim Mee and he has no base.

A great set with a lot of play value.

PT Boat

A re-cast patrol torpedo boat by MPC.

A re-cast is made using the original molds to re-create a model that is typically long out of production.

Re-casts are often molded in different colors to distinguish them from the originals.

Sometimes, but not in this case, they may not have all the associated parts that the original contained.

The MPC PT boat is fully equipped.
