right arm is cast separately, but when
test fit, lines up perfectly.
Both figures are sculpted wearing a
tropical combat uniform typical of the
ERDL or “tiger stripe” uniforms worn in
this era. Each figure also comes wearing
jungle-type combat boots.
Three different weapons are included
in the box although there are only two
figures, allowing the modeler to swap
out rifles if desired. The three rifles
included are a L1A1 SLR, an M14 rifle
with a shortened barrel and an added
pistol grip, and an M16A1 with an XM148 grenade launcher.
Conclusion
What another great kit from Vladi and
Bravo-6. High quality and interesting
subjects are quickly becoming par for the
Bravo-6 course. While these figures are
of the highest quality, the only comment
that I really have for them is that they

didn’t really seem to belong in the same

box. The figure tying his boots is smiling
and laughing while the other has a

very solemn look about him. While this
set may not make a great stand alone
subject, I think that they would perfect
to use with an earlier released Bravo-6
set, Australian SAS “Jungle Make-up”.
Overall verdict … a MUST HAVE
for any Vietnam era builder. Highly
Recommended.
