The latest figure set coming from Alpine Miniatures is straight from Vietnam in a tank.

Yay! I hope Alpine goes out of their comfort zone like this more often. This set looks great.

More Vietnam stuff PLEASE. Finally and painfully slow companies are visiting the Vietnam era. They are waking up, not everybody likes building Nazi stuff. I grew up during the Vietnam war and served after it. This is what I know.

I've been waiting forever for Alpine to release a set of Vietnam tankers. I'm even more excited the release isn't one guy pointing with another looking over his shoulder.

Hopefully there is more to come.

Wonderful releases. I'm glad Taesung decided to do some Vietnam tankers just in time for all those new M48s coming out... perhaps we could expect more in this Vietnam line from Alpine?

Ooooh yes, great Figures and also usuable for other AFV stuff like an M113. Hopefully Alpine will bring out some more Figures for NAM Period like some Infantry or better a crew for a Huey or Loach and a PBR boat crew would be also very welcome.

I hope it will be the start of a new range, and not an isolated figure ! But then we need action pose !

I’m really pleased with the fact that more and more companies release Vietnam related items, we sure had to wait a while for that!
These figures look really nice and make a nice addition I think.

Best regards,

You deserve the praise, these two G.I.s are nothing short of fabulous, I expect I'll have a couple of sets of them . I sure hope more are going to follow.
