There was a time when i regularly checked his website hoping from some news. But since i have bought a bunch of TAG miniatures the need to visit the website has become less. Being slightly familiar with the whole process of miniature making i suppose there has been some sort of delay. However, depending on my budget and what eventually will be offered for sale, i still might be interested.

I believe Recon 28 actually stands for RElease at a CONvention in about 28 years.

Still 2015 will mark the 50th anniversary of the commitment of large scale US ground forces to the war (and Australians too). Who knows, maybe that's what he is waiting for?

I have been checking for updates on this for some time to.  I haven't yet committed to Vietnam figures yet as I've been slowly picking up helicopters. If these are still some time off I'll probably just go with Force of Arms and Parkfield. Like Legion said, these could always be added later.

Add me to the frustrated masses... I've been looking forwards to seeing these come out for what seems like forever. I 'like' the look of the TAG and FoA figures, but 'love' the Recon 28 ones. Short of Paul Hicks, or Kostas over at Eureka 'doing Vietnam', I will continue to wait for the Recon figures... and wait, and wait...

It is a shame, that these range will never come. Maybe Ebob can give a statement.
But did Paul Hicks Vietnam???

Not as far as I know, but he is doing the wonderful Red Star Indochina figures... which will presently include the Viet Minh.

Love the bloke apparently falling over whilst firing his submachine gun. Aprt from that very nice figures and unlike the last batch, not a single member of the Royal Family amongst this lot.  ;)

I've emailed Ebob and asked about the Recon 28 range availability.

I like the Paul Hicks sculpts.

Well, while you're waiting why not come over and run some recon with some mine TAG miniatures. These are really very good and the service at TAG is excellent.

@happy wanderer: The problem is, that they need to be released. We wait since two years, I think

No, I think they are the "one ring" in miniature-scene. A kind of torture for us... :(

Yes, and legend turned into myth.....and what should have been remembered(released) was forgotten.  8)
