I'm doing a game of the battle for the US embassy in the Tet offensive and am having trouble finding suitable figures.

I'm looking for 28mm figures of Asian urban civilians, ie bareheaded in short sleeve shirts etc as that is what the assaulting troops wore.

Also western figures suitable for the non-military staff of the embassy in short sleeve shirts etc.

West Wind do some civvies, but alas not bare-headed.

Perhaps try the various Pulp & Horror lines for Western civvies, such as Artizan, Crooked Dice, Pulp Figures, RAFM, etc.

Pardulon Models had some Chinese civilians that might have worked, but their site says to check with Crooked Dice (not sure if they picked them up).

Killer B Games sell 1970s civilians in our Geezers ranges , a few years out but some of them could work as Embassy Staff.

We also do US troops with M14s in our Invasion X range which may come in handy for the Embassy assault.
