Bravo*6 have a new double figure set in the works featuring US Infantry during the Vietnam War.
Bravo*6 has I think done more for modellers who are fans of depicting the Vietnam War than any other manufacturer. The figures they have released covers all of the nations who took part from both sides of the conflict and are of a very high standard. This latest pair of figures which will be a part of the Bravo*6 Rumble in Jungle series look very good judging from the pictures, and were sculpted by Vladimir Demchenko.

35052 - U.S.INFANTRY(3)Thumper Power – 1/35th scale

Another outstanding kit from Bravo 6. I like how Vladimir decided to depict grenadiers carrying both the M79 and the XM148 grenade launchers. His attention to detail with the uniforms and equipment is awesome like always. In the pictures the machette seems a bit long, but when released, it will be the proper size. The early version of the grenadier's vest is well-detailed. The poses are excellent. The pose of the M79 gunner is dynamic and conveys that the gunner is in the middle of a fight instead of just lobbing some rounds during a Mad Minute. The guy with the XM148 attached to his M16 is posed quite well, too. I like how he is actually holding onto his helmet and crouching from incoming fire while trying to move out. I'm in the middle of working on a large diorama of a US Infantry platoon caught in the middle of an ambush and this set will fit the scene perfectly. I normally do convert most figure sets, but there is no need to convert anything on this one. I can't wait for it to be released. Great job, Vladi! Cheers, James
