Title: Belgian Paras in 15mm
Post by: bhall389 on 25 September 2014, 03:21:58 PM

Hi All,

I'm looking for 15mm figs I can use for the Belgian intervention in the Congo, specifically for Op Dragon Rouge and Op Dragon Noir, 1960.

Any ideas?

Peter Pig's AK-47 range should do you. With the variety of bodies equipped with SLR/G3s, and their range of heads for conversions, most post-war African uniforms can be bashed out in short order.

Absolutely correct.
The 'Professional ' range would be best (160+) with either a beret head or a US helmet head.

Thanks All, very helpful.

Peter Pig it is. I wasn't aware of the loose heads range, I'll being purchasing some of those in different genres I think.

The photos on the Yahoo Group are awesome too.
