There's a hobby shop down the store that still has thirty year old minis sitting on its shelves. I picked up several packs of figures for RAFM's 'Nam line. Tonight I painted up the US Army Specialists. These are the very first 20mm miniatures I've ever painted. I'm pretty sure its also the first time I've ever painted a soldier from the modern era. link I'd love to hear what people think of them. Also, I think these would work well with RAFM's Charlie Company, and other 20mm Vietnam games. If anyone wants them, I'm open to selling them since I only painted them for fun, and won't be getting into 20mm Vietnam. I'm also going to be painting the other two packs I bought, one of VC skirmishers and one of Vietnamese villagers (with a water buffalo!). |

And they are still in production, though the moulds have been remade of course. link |

If they WERE RAFM, they're Platoon 20 now! |

Those are P20 but I have a vauge memory that RAFM produced them at one time. |

Are these available in the EU? link |

Wow, yep those are the same minis, but sold in entirely different collections. Interesting that RAFM would sell the molds and then turn around and release Charlie Company. |

I don't think it says on the RAFM site at all-- are the Charlie Co. models 20mm? The price would indicate they are, but I would never presume to assume… |
