These two WWI British Army attacking toy soldiers were made by Durolin in 1930s Germany. I’ve also added a short video of the figures, created with PixVerse AI, to bring them to life.
For people adoring playing and collecting toy soldiers (Elastolin, Lineol, Durso, Britains, Marx, Timpo, Starlux and many others). I am presenting images of vintage toy soldiers as a historical curiosity without endorsement of any political ideology and propaganda of war.

WW2 postcard - Kleiner Soldat mit Stahlhelm .🪖🪖🪖🗡️🗡️🗡️🇾🇪🇾🇪🇾🇪
Artist-signed postcard by Fr. Bertram issued during the WWII era.
Caption: “The God who let iron grow did not want servants.”("Der Gott der Eisen wachsen ließ, der wollte keine Knechte").
Depicts a small child dressed as a soldier, wearing a steel helmet. The phrase is a patriotic line originally from the 19th-century German poem “Das Lied vom deutschen Vaterland” by Ernst Moritz Arndt, often used in nationalist contexts.
