Yeah, definitely exciting & way overdue... I anxiously await the pix...which also got me to thinking, didn't Conte announce quite a few years ago that they were going to release some soft plastic VN figs? It's a shame they never came to fruition...

I hope they are available at the Toy Soldier Show next month. If they are there I will be purchasing them. TSSD is always in attendance.

VIETNAM in 1:32 Plastic is one of the last great untouched subjects.
A super trendy hit if they can do it right, but some other manufacturers should jump aboard too!

TSSD did not get them. Apparently production is way behind. I spoke to Nick at the Toy Soldier Show and he was very disappointed he had not received the Viet Cong and US troops.

I learned in November they will be available. Not expensive either. There will be 4 Viet Cong figures and 6 or 8 US.
