Dear all
looking for jungle fighters (thought maybe Pendraken's Vietnam ranges may do the trick?) as stand ins to fight against Aliens in a 10mm remake.
YES this could be posted to the Sci-Fi board but it was removed from there as "aliens" were mentioned and that was before I got any advice concerning sleeves up, bandanna, dirty and rough looking jungle fighter figures for the post in question.
Think about the movies and think about the 10mm ranges you know of…any matches (photos to share would be grand!) Also, to reuse the sci-fi jungle terrain, essentially, I'm interested in doing a series of anti-drug war scenarios in Sth America What 10mm figures would you suggest looking at here?
Thinking special forces, government forces and drug cartel forces (both militia and drug trafficker styles) Cheers!

Don't forget the muscle-bound guy in Aussie hat firing the man-portable mini gun. :-) picture Mark |

I agree. A very sad day for valid use of the cross-posting function: TMP link Dan |

Heya
Thanks for your support, Cacique!
The 10mm GFI Aussies look like they may do the trick (36 for 7 bucks!!! Can't go far wrong!) along with Arab insurgents (I'm sure I'll find some use for them…and save on postage while I'm at it) Any ideas on special forces and drug types?
And where do those technicals I've seen around the net come from? Are they all custom-made?
