I'm having a tough time finding retailers of 20mm Vietnam in the U.S. I know Syr carries Platoon 20 (which are a bit chunky for my taste) and RAFM Charlie Company minis can be found, but other than that there's not much. Any suggestions? I'm looking for minis that will blend in with the Revell 1/72 'Nam sets. |

Syr also carries Elhiem which are excellent if limited. Brittania are chunky but can work in separate units. Did you check out the Pegasus Marine set? Thanks, John |

I've seen that Pegasus Marine set on Ebay but never purchased. For Americans, I really only need another M60 and maybe a couple M79's. For OpFor I need VC/NVA MMG's and HMG's, maybe a mortar, or some AA. I will have to check out the Elheim. |

The Pegasus Marine set is a little 'small' compared to 1/72 figures- comes in at 1/76 th or there abouts….
The metal figs from SHQ Vietnam ranges blend well with Revell imho…….. |

I wish the Britannia stuff was more readily available. They are back in business, aren't they? No response to my emails. My entire collection is based on Britannia, so I'd hate to add a different manufacturer. I have one squad of Liberatoin USMC, and they don't really fit in too well (but well enough….). GregS |
