So LRRPS and U.S. army are not far behind then? Or are we going to do the Secret war in Borneo first with Gurkhas, Malay, British troops and Indonesian opposition?   ;D
(Oh a more series note, what's the out look for US and ARVAN regulars? Because I just found out that we have a baby on the way, and might have to put my hobby orders on hold in the near future.  ::))
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Both Army and ARVN will be in the range but difficult to say exactly when although ARVN will be first in that queue.

Cannot give times at the moment until the world calms down a little. We also have a lot more Nam stuff to get through first.

Cool, I will pick them up eventually then. Even if I might have to wait a little bit longer then I want to.  :D

Todays release is the much requested civilians.

civilians played a major part in the conflict that raged in Vietnam, which obviously should include the French Indo China and WW2 periods. Civilians found themselves caught in the middle and suffered tremendously at the hands of all armies.

Therefore it is only right that we not only include them in the range but also page homage to their suffering.
In the same room in the shop is the sprue of heads in sun hats. These can be used to fit on the civilian heads if wished to make many variants.

Very nice figures, perfect for a "quiet" village...

Do you have plans for more ANZAC figures, for a third squad?

Love the new figures.
A question if I may ask,

Thanks.

PS Sorry Paul, I miss the post where your addressed the ARVN.

Congrats!

Yes, children are an even more expensive hobby. Sadly child labour laws don’t allow you to defray the costs as in the past so you pretty well have to take the hit on the chin. Wait until they have pastimes and hobbies of their own that you pay for like roller skating, football and losing expensive items of school uniform on a regular basis. It never ends.

Still they are a fun pastime, quite rewarding actually.

Congrats!  Welcome to the club.  It's not too bad... most of the time.  Just be prepared to redefine what tired is :o

Most of parenting seems to be asking: "Why is this wet?"
