They'd also look nice with a helmeted head-swop.

Post by: Melnibonean on 23 September 2012, 06:07:20 AM: They are just too damn fine but I have to ask: What about some nice neat soldiers in plain and simple 1960s uniform (with webbing and beret)? I've been looking for them but just can't find them.

Post by: Deathjester on 23 September 2012, 04:46:14 PM: Well Black Treed Design are having a sale on Dr Who ranges 20% off. You could order the UNIT Soldiers collection pack as well as the UNIT heavy weapons.

£17 each I think if you have registered on their site.

Best Option - Otherwise try Gripping Beast Falkland Brits.

Post by: Big Martin on 24 September 2012, 01:28:03 PM: I'm going for some of the Gripping Beast Falklands figures when I can afford to add some "soldiers" to my forces.

Can't wait for even more minions - all in the "corporate" outfit of green overalls to match my existing ones.
