Atlantic was an Italian firm that came into business about 1970 and went out of business about 1986. They made both 1/72 (or there abouts) "HO" and 1/32 54-60mm plastic polyethylene figures. Some window box painted versions exist but most figures were sold unpainted in sets. Five basic catagories of figures were made; ancient, USA Western, WWII, Modern military, and space fantasy. The ancient figures and accessories are considered to be among the best ever produced, and the US western series was the most complex made by any manufacturer. Some of the figure sculpting is a little off, but these figures are avidly being sought after throughout the world. Most (if not all) of the 1/32 and a good portion of the 1/72 molds are now in Iraq....
