Hey all.....!
I'm looking for a 1/35th scale (or larger) figure from Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm.....one that would have had the six-color chocolate-chip pattern camo uniform, the regular OD'ish LBE, and black combat boots. Ideally, it'll also have the M203 grenade launcher....if no M203, maybe a link to someone that makes it??
I did a 1/6th scale "GI Joe" "Mini-me" some time ago, and now I'd like to do/have done a smaller version. If you have any thoughts, links, ideas, PLEASE pass them my way...I'd prefer "scratching" as little as possible....me and figgy's don't get along so well.
If you happen to have one on hand, and are willing to part with it, I'll pay well for this project.
Many thanks ahead of time!
Quick Edit: The pose can be standing, walking, or running...either way. The helmet can also have the SWD goggles on it or over the eyes.....plenty of "room" for this one. Oh, I did not wear the vest that carried the 40mm rounds; I had four of the little (IIRC) 3-round bandoleers across my shoulders/chest (I weren't a Grunt....therefore didn't git da vest).
Mike

Looks like he's wearing a T-shirt under his vest instead of his DCU blouse.
Nice figure, though.

Yea.....he is, but.....that can be fixed. Other than a couple of "things," this is perfect.
