Combat! Playset - WWII Toy Tommy Gun and more

The above WWII toy playset was auctioned on eBay in 2000. Atomic Candy (the seller) described the set as follows: "This is a very rare piece of television memorabilia. This is a childs playset so that you could be Sarge or the Lieutenent. Comes with holster and strap with great graphics of Sarge and Lt. Also comes with generic plastic and steel tommygun, die-cast revolver, capbomb, and knife. Everything is dead mint unused. Comes in original shipping box.!"

Paint By Number

Hasbro released two Combat! Paint By Number sets

Oil Paint by Number Set (Hasbro, 1963): includes a 15 by 17 inch carry case box with three 12 by 16 inch pre-numbered sketched canvases, 28 vials of paint, and 3 brushes. Value in good condition $100, in excellent condition $115, in mint condition $125. At the end of the 1990s, already painted paint-by-number art became quite collectible - so if you painted your and you still have it, it's got value. Military paint-by-numbers already painted have become especially popular post 9-11.
