What a cool kid. Imagine how this must make all our veterans feel, not just the female vets. Its shows how there is kids out here thinking about all of our Vets.

I remember watching this young ladies story last year. I am so happy the toy creator followed through with making these lady army toys! I’ll look around to see where I can buy these items for my daughters.

I'm surprised that it took this long for female soldiers to appear in Toy soldiers.

[amonrodriguez]

are you kidding me!? Vivian i have 4 sisters and none of them did this! You are amazing!

making this an equality issue is so insulting to anyone with an iq over 80. only a tiny amount of girls would ever want a soldier as a toy, so they dont sell at all. the toy market is already rough, if you want companies to produce products that dont sell, take a loan and run your own company into the ground. that will definitely show the patriarchy.

I’m going to assume these toy soldiers are based off of WW2 soldiers. The regular soldier was a man until 1994. This is unrealistic unless they’re doing modern day soldiers. If they want to have women in a WW2 pack, they should do the brave women who were in the factory or the ones in the Women’s Auxiliary Corps.

Why do the women you soldiers get all the cool poses while the army men have the same pose for like centuries

[primarymedworks]

Does anyone have the link of where to purchase???

Why are woman taking credit for the sacrifices from men

[carlosb]

No matter how much you want to put women working on rooftops in the middle of July every day of the year for years you won't make it happen, it is not realistic.

I'm surprised. This video has been up for 18 hours and only 1 sexist comment? Where are the rest of the fragile white boys to cry about how they're ruining these toys? 😂
