Combat Paratrooper
The Combat Paratrooper (7705) was one of the first sets issued for the Action Marine, and is completed for display with a camouflage helmet.

The paratrooper items were also issued on small cards, the helmet (7707) (below left) on one, the small arms (7706) (right) on another. A third card held the parachute pack (7709), and a fourth Camouflage netting (7708).

Notes on Variations
See notes on canteens on the Action Soldier's Bivouac page. Medic kit info can be found on the Soldier's Combat page. The M-1 carbine (right) can be found in an earlier unmarked version, and a marked version that simple says Hasbro (R). There is a third version that has the butt plate painted black of which I will add a photo soon. |
