Hi Guys,
Back in 1968, one of my favourite songs of that year was ‘Street Fighting Man’ by the Rolling Stones from their iconic album “Beggars Banquet”.
More than 50 years later it’s still one of my all-time favourites and captures the spirit and violence of that time.
It’s also been part of the ‘soundrack’ of King & Country’s ‘VIETNAM WAR’ series and helped inspire many of the fighting Marines we have designed and produced for this dramatic range of figures.
Just a couple of days ago one of my own ‘VIETNAM DIOS’ was bought by a dedicated K&C collector in the UK and so, before we packed it up and shipped it out I decided to set up another scene showing some of our ‘GRUNTS’ in action during ‘68’s TET Offensive.
In amongst all the blood ’n’ guts shown here are 7 all-new figures of ‘Street Fightin’ Marines’ providing much-needed reinforcements... See if you can find ‘em!
They will be released later this year.
All the best and... Semper Fi!
Andy
