These are of little use to armour modellers but the level of detail is the usual very high standard.

What would be of use is marketing type girls. Properly dressed but you know the style, as there are so many photos of Russian tanks etc at arms expo's, terminator etch, and appropriate figures would allow for a nice realistic diorama of some of these vehicles that are not in service anywhere yet.

The bikinis are probably too modern for, say, Vietnam. But a little putty would take care of that.

The sculpting is the usual brilliant standard for sure! I think the most well done figures in this genre so far.

What is sex with these figures? They just have bath suite on them like girls use to look like at the beach... So i dont know what "sex sells"
Nice figures indeed, it's just a pity that it is so difficult to paint skin tone

Am I alone in remembering a dio from an old tamiya catalogue with a young couple on a beach and an old rusted Japanese tank? I would have prefered to see a range of ages (perhaps a somewhat older lady trying to read whilst her son/husband is getting all excited about the tank/bunker he has found).

With an old jeep re-purposed as a beach buggy? Or as "eye candy" at a military show/as calendar girls? (Vietnam era or in the 80's for instance).

I think he was talking about the T2 model whilst Takom's kit is a newer T3.
