I disagree. In the 80’s thru the 90’s, there were various 1/6 scale non-brand military figures at toy stores and dept. stores. Now, you can’t find anything in the 1/6 scale outside of Hasbro Titans 5pt of articulation figures. Your 1/6 companies listed are super tiny niche market toys sold in super tiny specialty stores. I can’t go into Walmart and pick up a Dragon figure. In the 80’s, I had several 1/6 scale soldier figures that were bought at a retail store.

Kids can’t take military toys out in public, or snowflakes complain and parents are asked to leave. Kids get kicked out of school for making finger guns. The military is taboo in today’s world.
