Very cool Steve! Love the custom work. I like TCS 'Nam figures, esp. the Vietcong with hat. Do you find them a little larger than other 1/30 scale figures? I heard Brian plans to offer a second wave down the road.
Thanks Rob. Yes they certainly are which is a shame, in that US troops are noticeably bigger and so won't really mix with K&C or FL figures.
I've bought the laying wounded figure which because of the position won't be too noticeable, I also got the seated figure, which was a mistake size wise, though I may still be able to use him.
The shot VC are ok I think due to the pose and work pretty well with the Del Prado one, and I think since I they won't be that close to the K&C figures when they come. I've even ordered a third one, who I'll take the hat away entirely so each one will be slightly different.
The Del Prado could be used with a few duplicates perhaps for anyone wanting an under attack scene perhaps and are a reasonable sculpt and still fairly cheap, though maybe not so readily available as were. Probably to others thinking the same as me and getting them for scenes with K&C, FL or TCS ones !
In the recent Texas show thread, there are photos with a few more TCS figures. NVA & US Army, based on characters of the film "Platoon", but because of the size differential I can't see me buying those. Like I say, for me it's a Shame.
Steve
