Once upon a time I remember seeing some spare heads of Viet Nam era American Black soldiers. Or was this a fig newton of my imagination?

Anyone recall seeing these, where? Thanks much

Sounds like the now defunct, "Jungle Rot" line that used to have separate heads available.

They used to have a variety kof alternate heads like african heads in US helemts and such.

Maybe someone else can confirm it?

Second on Junge Rot formerly know as London War Room.

The figures and heads are small like true 25mm.

I have rather large force of the old RalPartha Battletroops with beret head swaps as future UN troops.
