Another 'New' reissue of a Nam guy from Dragon...

feeds@yuku.com (JOSH 51st) — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 22:21:30 GMT

I don't get it. They say Nam doesn't sell, maybe 'cause they release old figures, no updates 'cept a body... If they released somethig new with cloth gear, I'd be all over it. Well, the latest guy is an exact copy of Nate, except it's a white guy now named Nick. http://www.dragonmodelsus...sa/prodd.asp?pid=DRF70674 The sculpt looks good, but not worth the purchase of the boxed...

http://caltekonline.com/ss017.asp - lots of pics.

Not going to be everyone's cuppa, but for me, if it's VN-centric, it's good. Have the parts been done before? Yeah, but not enough, I think.

Couple of pics posted...

SOTW Figures showing up at KB Toys and Christmas Tree Shops in the US

feeds@yuku.com (Mutt71) — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 09:06:27 GMT
While checking out the different action figure boards this morning, I have found that each of them have aposting of SOTW figures showing up at KB Toys and Christmas Tree Shops here in the US. On one board, someone said that there were some cammo faced figures with cammouflage uniforms like the SST John Wayne figure had. These are very nice Tiger Stripe uniforms, if that is what they are. I wonder what other Vietnam Era figures and equipment are out there at these two retailers. They also did...

oscars hush puppy and camo are loose at monkey depot if anyone is in need.all in all it was a pretty bland release but did sport some nice parts

Near future Toy Soldier Nam release ?

feeds@yuku.com (the saint) — Sat, 22 Mar 2008 05:55:55 GMT
I've just seen a post on OSW stating that the next TS release would be a Vietnam Recon set. Hard to guess what 'Recon' means here : Marine Recon, another LRRP/Ranger or SOG ?
Just wanted to let you know.

Reload Action Tiger Stripe Uniform

feeds@yuku.com (JTFazz) — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 13:57:39 GMT
I just got my first Reload Action Tiger Stripe Uniform in. I am fairly impressed with these. They have not made a big splash just yet on the American market, but are readily available overseas. I did purchase a couple of sets from a seller in Hong Kong on ebay, but they have not yet made it in.

Good Stuff To Go is now carrying them and that is where I got mine from. The kit contains much the same as the Saturday Toys release: Boonie, Jacket, Trousers, T-shirt, OD belt. But the...

TS tropical uniforms

feeds@yuku.com (CraigSL02) — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 11:35:28 GMT
Not sure how wide spread the release is but I received three packs of the Toy Soldier Tropical Uniforms from Echo Base Toys (http://www.echobasetoys.com/index.htm ). The "packs" are interesting as they look like something you get fancy cookies in. Although I have yet to place one on a figure body, they look nice and the material is what you would expect from TS. Although the enclosed insignia is limited, there are...
