Title: Khurasan releases 15mm Vietnam War range
Post by: Khurasan Miniatures on September 14, 2017, 04:42:48 PM: We are very pleased to release our latest 15mm modern combat range, for the Vietnam War, 1965-1973. The range focuses on US involvement in the ground war, and its release coincides with the premiere in the US of Ken Burns's latest documentary this Sunday, September 17, as well as the recent book by Mark Bowden on the Battle of Hue.

The first codes in the range are a US infantry squad with M16s without body armour, a pair of M60 gunners, and an NVA squad. We also have an M113 model that is part of the range as well.

Each figurine in the squad is a unique sculpt. The US figures come with separate packs, one per figurine, and the M60s, and the RPD in the NVA squad, come with a bipod if you wish to use it.

The range will be greatly expanded, and the second codes -- a squad with M16s in M69 armour, and a Viet Cong Main Force squad, are being sculpted now.

The first codes are available now:
