The inclusion of Russ Heath's "Plastic Sam!" was a pleasant surprise in the already-awesome MAD Artist's Edition:  . Sam's face the last panel in this sequence is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

And another kid I knew. I heard him complain once at school that they were so flimsy they'd melt in a hot car. Wonder what the Roman soldiers looked like? That ad by Heath is much better drawn than some of those other ads for similar products.

That ad by Heath is much better drawn than some of those other ads for similar products. Mine weren't so bad. And not that thin. It's just hard to set up a good-looking battle scene when all of the figures have to be facing the same direction. I mixed them in with my 3D army men and used them mostly as background grunts and color. They also made good BB gun targets.
