Good luck firing a M60 from the standing position unless it's AA fire
But I like their aggressive demeana

Looking at their website they have also done a few new dioramic pieces in the shape of a bunker, sand bag walls and a watchtower. They look pretty nice and ideal for someone wanting to portray a FSB.

A person could create the scene from the Green Beret movie. You know the scene where the defecation hits the fan!

These should go great with the K&C Vietnam series figures.For me CS and K&C have been very compatible.....in most cases.

Hi Wayne,

I own the first release of TCS's 'Nam figures. They are a little larger in size compared to previous TCS figures, esp. compared to K&C. Great poses and detailing, but I don't think they are compatible. I've been admiring the new TCS 'Nam structures. They look really cool!

The first released CS Nam figures are to large to go with K&C I have them all. Now the CS "platoon" figures are a bit smaller and may work also the hueys would probablly work.
I ordered but have not yet received the CS green beret figures so I don't know about those.

Oh great... so now the old and new TCS 'Nam figures are not to scale. Thanks for the info Gary. I was really thinking about buying these. Disappointing to hear.

I got my CS green beret figures yesterday. Let me clarify. The first issue CS Marines are really chunky, looks like they are on steroids. For me they are to large to fit with K&C Marines. If you want to use them together (CS 1st issue & K&C) I wouldn't. However the CS huey, APC & tank would work with K&C. In my opinion all excellent pieces. However good luck finding door gunners for the huey, tough to find and none at origional prices Now the CS 4 figure platoon charector figures & the green berets are not chunky and those would fit with K&C I just double checked. The CS NVA compared to K&C NVA are not even close. The CS NVA must of had cake & ice cream with their rice bowels as they are huge.
Since I display mine CS & K&C seperately I,m OK with the above situation. Also since I am burnt out on WW2 I'll buy almost anything having to do with Vietnam.

I did get them. I went to the shop and tried a couple against the K&C figures and it works. Looking forward to a "Green Beret" dio.
