Lovely touch with the Thompson - very “Hue”! Gives a really individualistic feel to the figures!

Keep ‘em coming please! My wallet can take it..... honest!

Cracking stuff. Bit of a bugger though, I hadn’t really planned on two platoons worth of gyrenes.  :)
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Thanks for the encouragement chaps. This batch will have less helmet bands and a bit more campaign to balance the ratios.

We will have more M60's and Bloopers in this batch to add variety. Its an Empress thing that we like to offer variations to the customer as a lot of ours buy them for model making and simply collecting. Its a detail thing.

Plus we like nice toys here  ;)

So best show a new sculpt today then; Difficult to choose but lets go with this guy;

Hmmm. My memory might be failing but I’m pretty sure you can’t break open an M-79 to that extent, unless you are disassembling it. The foregrip wouldn’t be able to get past the receiver. Nice sculpt but Paul might want to throttle back on the angle. Otherwise another lovely bit of work.

You are correct sir which is why I have dropped the picture off. We will change the figure easily but unfortunatly we have had a number of sock puppet issues on our FB from a certain quarter and its detracting from the pleasure of releasing the range so do not wish to gift certain pathetic individuals who seem to lack professional standards an opportunity to make pathetic comments.  :?

As said we will change this chap and I will put anothe figure from the stack we have to show later  8)

Fantastuc miniatures once again! Really love the character of these miniatures and their gritty look!

Also good that the Community helps with insights regarding gear and equipment! Keep on going this really is a great range!

Ignore the idiots - it’s very clear to most of us you are bringing the long awaited “touchstone” Vietnam range to market - keep going. The ars*hole sock puppets making such stupid comments clearly have their own sad little agenda. Ignore them. This range is simply amazing - pat yourself on the back and keep bringing them out - we’ll keep buying! Thanks for all you’re doing!
