Vietnam customs

Post by Razor17019 » Fri Aug 04, 2006 9:17 pm

Here is a pic of some Vietnam figures I made (just some head swapping- except the first figure on the left)
My huey crew chief (on extreme left) was made up of several parts:Marine arms, VN head, PTE helmet, unknown figure body.
Figure in the middle was a VN Seal and I just gave him a new head with red beret. Nice change from the durag wearing Seals...
Figure 2nd from Right is a M113 crew body, VC head and VN arms.
Compare with figure on extreme right is from the Walker Bulldog.

What's that in the background, a grass hut?

The hut was a thrift shop find. Centone found out it was part of a "Land of the Lost" playset and I had just the hut. (probably worth millions on Ebay! :lol: ) It had legs mad out of logs. I took the legs off and just made it into a hut. The windows fold out and are propped up by a small stick.
