This will be my contribution to the F&B GB. I had forgotten they were even in the stash.![]() Now need to find a suitable vehicle to go with them like the Takom SUV or BMW. I did watch a very interesting documentory on History about the rise of Private Military Contractors and the effect or impact they are having on operations in some areas of the world |

Good choice Sean. Have you got a spare Hi Lux in the stash or what about the Meng Mercedes? Or you could just have him exiting or entering a doorway |

I have the Meng ODA Hi-Lux but I also have a few Legend ODA figures currently on the way from Hong Kong to go with that. The Meng Merc would also work with these. I also have the Masterbox Palestinian street fighters half-done. Could do these guys coming out a door/gateway with the Palestinians/Arabs around the corner.....great ideas and plans but they all fall down as soon as I try doing a dio base. But anyway, as I have these and they are unstarted, the PMCs will be my official entry. We'll see how it develops from there.... |

Just to show I have not forgotten about this GB, the sprues![]() One sprue with the 4 figures. Nicely molded, very light seam lines..... And another sprue with packs and pouches. And 4 small sprues with 4 M4s, lots of accessories and spare magazines and some hand guns in and out of the holsters including empty holsters ![]() Time to start cutting & gluing!

Picked up this set at the nationals:![]() So added teh father & son to the build of the PMCs. Haven't decided if I'll bother with the "client" figure ![]() And an old set of part done Palestinian street fighters including another kid. ![]() Still not sure how it's all going to come together but if I include enough figures i might actuall manage to finish some of them

Sometimes I wonder, why every Middle-Eastern man is depicted as wannabe terrorist. Sure, not everyone is wearing Vietnam era jacket and polished army boots? |

Because the set is designed to go with one of their pick-ups, all of which have guns in the back. And maybe he's a freedom fighter, rather than a terrorist?

No, I just had a quick look on scalemates and it seems not. Though something like this would work too: http://www.scalemates.com/kits/155044-revell-07499-unimog-u-1300-l-2t-military |

I've never actually seen the whole of 'Harry's Game' but I was also surprised to see yer man Charlie going at it with the AK! You've certainly got a lot of figures to consider here Sean. The Trumpeter set looks really nice too. |
