Tour of Duty TV series
« on: May 26, 2011, 09:28:34 AM »
One of my club mates is hooked on the DVDs of the TV series and is looking for a suitable 28mm "Sarge" figure with rolled up sleeves and a sweat band only for head gear, anyone know of any?
Cheers,

You don't need to use the old club mate excuse.  lol lol lol
You can admit it is you :D
There are some (very few) Nam gamers here.
I will keep an eye out for a suitable figure.

He have a M117 too which was the case with the Sarge character IIRC

gamer MAC - yeah, I know, the normal line but actually wrong this time.
Calimero - maybe the US Army Platoon HQ set might be better?

Unfortunately Sony have stripped the original period music from the dvd release. No Stones during the credits, no sale  :(

Not too much of a problem, I have the CD "Best of Tour of Duty".  ;)
