US Special Forces, Indochina 1971
Did up this figure a few years back but I never got around to photographing it.
Here's the parts breakdown -
Hot Toys: bonnie, webbing, pistol + holster, smoke grenades, gloves, nude
BBI: head sculpt
21C TUS: uniform
Zacca: RPG-7
InToyz: M16A1
ACE: boots
For the longest of time, I wasn't sure if the RPG-7 was used in Indochina during the Vietnam war period. A search on the Internet turned up the following photograph.
The Zacca RPG has a modern warhead (RPG-7VS?) but it will do for now till I can get my hands on one with an appropriate warhead or the Armoury RPG-2.

El Alamein - la linea del fuoco (2002)
El Alamein - la linea del fuoco (El Alamein - The Line of Fire) is a rare WWII movie as it is about the Italians in the North Africa campaign. The combat scenes are fairly disappointing but I do like the look at the various Italian equipment. Do note that I'm not familiar with WWII Italians, so I'm unable to vouch for the accuracy of the stuff that are in the movie.
A close up on the gorgeous pith helmet with its' plume. Perhaps I should pick up a Twisting Toyz Bersagliere "Luca" figure.
The overhead camouflage net with its map like contour lines
The mini truck on the right is just so cute! Wonder what truck it might be.
A look at the items that an Italian soldier might carry.
This would make a good diorama.
Love the folds on the tunic under the strap. Would have to replicate this in 1/6 one of these days.
A close look at the boots with its puttee. The boots that came with Luca doesn't even come close to looking like the real thing.

Tour of Duty - Paint It Black
The opening credits with Rolling Stones' Paint It Black was how I remembered it. The generic music that replaced it on the DVDs is just so wrong.
