Not too shabby at all :)
Interesting little fact; my uncle (deceased about 10 years ago) was a Lt. Colonel in the 1st RAR, his name was Herbert Victor Dobinson,known as 'Vic'. He was a lieutenant in Korea, and left the army in the early seventies...he spent 9 days in Vietnam, I presume for administrative reasons before he left.
If anyone has better resources (I know barely anything about his army days) please let me know

Very nice.

Is that a torch strapped to the M79?

If you mean the item on the top of the barrel, its the foresight.

I'm looking forward to see an Odd Angry Shot set of troops. With an angry Corporal Alf Stewart as a Range NCO!

I wouldn’t get too excited about Danger Close. It’s rubbish. The doco the same production team is far better and it’s on Youtube.

Well, that's a nice surprise to wake up to.

I'll wait for it to be in stock with the Australian distributor (his place is 5 mins walk from mine), but I am definitely going all in  :D

Danger Close is on Amazon Prime (at least here in Australia) if you have that.

Thanks guys and girls for the good comments.

Stay safe. ;)

Yeah they are the next section of the range.

Obviously difficult to say when as production is halted but sculpting will continue so at least you can see them  ;)
