Joe,

Dragon has the 1/35 IIWO JIMA US Marines still available in stores. This is the only one that I know of.

I think so Joe. Many of the first ones to fight in Pacific soil are actually Marines.

check out verlinden, they have several. Most are marines but I think you could use them with minimal conversion

Dragon has a set of figures for the move "Windtalkers". It contains 4 Japanese infantry and 4 Marines as well as a special Navaho code talker figure. I can't remember, but i think they are in neutral positions... Hope that helped.
