Hi all, I'm desperately trying to find these 2 old 28mm Chiltern/SHQ Viet Cong packs of figures. If someone has these, or other Chiltern minis in their lead pile, let me know. These pics are from an old Chiltern catalog from 2000. imgur.com/d21fngx imgur.com/FW3tOCK |

I probably won't get to it until this weekend, just wanted to give you a timeframe so you weren't thinking I forgot. |

No worries Leidang. I appreciate it immensely. |

I've got the figs you have pictured plus bunch of others. I'll get a full list together tonight. 50 or so total Americans and 90 or so Vietnamese. |

Whoa…. that's a LOT of figures! I didn't even think Chiltern made that many. LOL |

I bought all of these in a lot at a convention a longtime ago. They were just in a box and I really hadn't ever looked at them close until now. I for sure found the eight you have pictured so I have set them aside. In the totals below there are also 1 more of each of those figures. Also there are some for sure Chiltern but there might be another manufacturer mixed in. Some of the figs are slightly smaller and slighter. But they look like they could be the same sculptor. The Vietnamese mix pretty well but the Americans are noticeably slighter. I can do pictures if you are interested in taking a look. Here is the breakdown without the 8 included. Americans

Chiltern had 2 sculptors and they were wildly different in style and stature. Could be the ones you're talking about. |
