I plan on building a BTR-80UP and have been looking for some Iraqi soldiers to go with it. Are there any sets or conversions out there? I already have bodies that will work, just need the heads. TIA.

I remain dubious, unless you have a product number or site that carries them.

Guess that Iraqi infantry just doesn't have a deep enough pool to draw from. I'll change am sets for my BTR and use some of my Soviet figs. Thanks guys.
