Mario,
The BINO's that come in the Legand's modern stowage sets are pretty nice. Next would be the plastic ones that come in the Tamiya Modern Equipment set. Are there any particular style of BINO's your looking for?

Epi, which Legend stowage sets are that? I'm not sure if buying the entire stowage set would be viable just to get a binocular. I'm off to check the Legend site.

The binoculars I'm after are something like these:

Yup, in the Legend sets and Tamiya set. Maybe someone closer to you could spare you one so you don't have to get a whole set.

Mario- Are these the same Steiner binos as on Legend crew figure LF0122 here?

Stuart, I think so. I'm wondering if the binos are cast separately from the hand?

Mario

EDIT: Just found an on-line review of the figure, the binos are cast with the hand holding them.
