The figures are cast in the usual light cream resin with good uniform details, fabric folds and facial features with just the usual casting blocks and some small casting seams to be dealt with before assembly.
Both are bare headed as was often the case and the full figure has the torso in one part with separate arms and head, he has his arms folded in front and can be posed leaning on the M113 AVAC armour (as on the box top) or on the hatch ring or cupola of any other vehicle.
The half figure again has the body with separate arms and head and is posed with arms resting on the hatch sill of any vehicle.
Conclusion:
A simple set with two well detailed figures that can add life to any Vietnam
era vehicle, they require minimal assembly and straight forward painting.
