Toy soldier

Any of various metal, wooden, or primarily plastic soldiers manufactured to commemorate soldiers who served any war from the beginning of time to the most recent wars.

The largest toy manufacturer of this type of toy was the Louis Marx and Company, founded by Louis Marx and producer of very realistic soldiers of great detail. Marx was also noted for his realistic historical figure collections of plastic men and women including the Presidents of the United States collection, the Warriors of the World, Generals of World War II, Jesus and the Apostles, and figures from the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
