Thanks for linking to these, Karl. The Oxford Panmunjeom set is interesting (and accurate>!):

Are there any pictures of the K-Mart Oxford stuff anywhere?

Wow, Kudos on the history knowledge. An interesting bit of modern history woven into that toy. As for pictures, I haven’t seen any, but supposedly the Oxford toys that the K-mart varieties are repackaged versions of can be seen here:

it;s a few posts down, it appears that but the jeeps set, police van, tank, jet, police station and fire station are the currently available sets. Let us know if you find pictures of the K-Mart stuff. The wife is buying new shoes this weekend, so I’m going to see if I can get a stop off at K-mart out of the deal....

One correction, the tank kit shown over on blocks was not part of the JustKidz releases so far, it was posted in reference to another question. The K-Mart line so far consists of 3 140 piece kits, the Jeep set, a swat van, and a fire pumper truck, each with two minfigs, and 3 400 piece sets, the police station, fire station, and military jet maintence set.

There are also additional releases in round cardboard drums under the cobi/best lock label and at higher prices at TRU, topping out at a 50 dollar 1501 piece set.
