Ah, yes, dispersing the riotous rabble with cold steel. Wonderful!

P.S. Did you see the one who broke his bayonet off but kept on fighting without it? I've got plenty of those!!

To bad they didn't use historically accurate tactics…..

So what scale were they, what rules were used and what kind of basing material did they have?

"So what scale were they,"

I'm pretty sure that's 1 to 1.

Yeah, but I was even more impressed with the one who kept fighting without his HEAD.

Interesting how many different people actually posted scenes from "March of the Wooden Soldiers". I'd never even heard of the movie. That many people taking the time to convert an old, obscure, movie to digital and posting it on YouTube…

This was originally a 1934 movie called Babes in Toyland and was remade several times.

Its a Laurel and Hardy film that usually shows up around Christmas time, though maybe only at 3AM.

I wait with baited breath as a kid all year round for Thanksgiving just because I knew 'The March of the Wooden Soldiers' would be on. It was that and a slew of Godzilla movies and Cartoon specials. I was terified of the "Boogey Men". And Barnibus was a really bad man.
