Anyone aware of any 6mm figures that would be good for the various Lebanese militias around Beirut for the mid 1980s?

For what vehicles were used, I'd check GHQ and H&R. As for figures, might be a tad harder than looking at 15mm and up. There's no picture but H&R's M21 – Rebel Forces – Insurgent Infantry might do. GHQ's Sub-Saharan Irregular Infantrymen with mix weapons should work. As well as Brushfire Warriors and Individual 3rd World Regulars depending how you paint them up. could use Russian cold war figures for Syrians. Best of luck.

Yes, I agree, check out GHQ as beingshort1 mentioned. You should find what you are looking for in some of the those GHQ lines. link

I'm hoping that some of the H&R stuff might work. I've Emailed them about it. I have the GHQ Sub Saharan Infantry which is perfect for the infantry but need gun crews for AA guns and artillery if possible.

Be careful of mixing GHQ and H&R figures. GHQ vehicles are just slightly larger than H&R (enough to be noticeable when they are close to one another at arms length), but the infantry is on completely different scales (most people claim GHQ dismounts/crew are 8mm, while H&R is closer to 6mm. I can confirm that GHQ dismounts looks giant next to my other 6mm)

Thanks Soviet, I had not even thought of that.
