Whats the Difference Between Original, Recast, & Copies/Clones Soldiers?
Original toy soldiers are made from the original manufacturer and mold. These are usually vintage soldiers, or newly scultped figures. Recasts are toy soldiers made from the original mold, but the mold has been ‘re-sold’ to a new manufacturer. Recasts usually look indentical to the original figure, though the plastic may be a different color. Copies and Clones are figures that are copied from a original figure. Usually the manufacturer takes a ‘original’ figure, makes a new mold from that figure, and then makes ‘copies’ or ‘clones’ of that figure. These type of figures are usually a bit different in size and quality, depending on the process to make them. Clones make great troops to build up an army! There are also Recast and Copies/Clones vehicles made also.
