As far as the military figure, the ARVN often were seen riding these, so is correct. Looks like a nice set, especially with the figures. Wayne

I see this set as a figure set, and if/when I see it at the shop I think I’ll buy one (or maybe more?)

50 years later this stuff is showing up. Could have used them when I was trying to explain things. Oh well. Wayne

No doubt, Wayne. I wish the outpour of Vietnam related kits and figures occured a while ago, but I guess better late than never. I am glad to see that there are more peaceful situations coming out in kit form rather than more fighting poses. I hope someone starts releasing figures and kits of the other MOSs like Engineers, Supply, Commo, Medical, Maintenance, Transportation, and Admin or Finance. I sculpted several for one company and they are dragging their feet getting them cast and out in the marketplace. They are missing a good opportunity of getting some Made in the USA US Forces in Vietnam figures into the hands of modelers.
