If I had a nickel for every time I saw that exact ad in Spider-Man...
There a company I have been a big fan of for some time now (http://www.classictoysoldiers.com/) that still makes classic toy soldiers. You can order them by the box full. I order them to do mass combats in D&D/Conan/Whatever I happen to be running. I also buy them at the flea market once in a while, but brick-and-mortar stores that carry them are rare if you don't want to pay a 100% markup rate.

In fact, this image is almost reminiscent of that ad...

I had one of those when I was 9. When the box came after what seemed like weeks and weeks, I was disappointed at the size of it, and even more at the “army” itself.
I did some courtesy play with it, since I had nagged my parents to insanity before they finally relented and got the thing for me. But its playtime life was very short.
