Hi MIKE;
You will be lucky even if you can find the Launcher, let alone the RPG rounds.
With all the Weapons sets that are on the Market, no one has provided a RPG sad too say. I think at one time DML made A Figure set of Viet Cong with A B-40 RPG, and there is another set that has A Fig; with A RPG and he has extra rounds in A Pack on his back. But I can't remember who made them.
G-DAY; MIKE.

Hi Mike,
Yeah I think the dragon veitcong sappers had a guy with one & a pack on his back, I know Verlinden do some Taliban with am rpg in each set & tank do a soviet weapons set with an rpg in it,but like you say no one does loose rounds.
I have had to cannabilise 4 different Verlinden sets just to get 4 rounds but is to bloody expensive to do on an on going basis!! Was hoping someone like tank or live resin may have done a set but doesn't look like it!!
I think they would sell like hot cakes personally!!

Try contacting Evolution Miniatures. On of their Taliban figures comes with a separate RPG launcher and warhead. They may run off a few heads for you.

I have an RPG from TANK Models but I believe it comes in a set with several other 1980s Afghanistan era weapons and I don't think there are any spare warheads for it.

There are two RPG-7 rounds in Diopark's Mercedes kit...Maybe you could find someone who has this kit and prefers the Polizei version

Dragon also did aloaded RPG with their Israeli para figure set
If you're up for a bit of scrathing/casting:
Remove the warhead from the launcher, use some styrene stock for the tail-fin/propellant assembly and you've got a master for casting.

Verlinden did a Soviet weapons package in white metal many years ago, had a RPG7, AKM, and AK47. Need to learn how to cast though, have a mini casting kit so maybe a good start

Hi Frenchy, Paul & Jim,
Looks like I may have to bite the bullet & try casting the 4 I have already made with propellant charges, but may still also try the evolution route as well & see if they would do a pack of x amount of RPGs & loose rounds for me, that way covers both bits needed for debris etc

As far as I know, Evolution doesn't have their own casting facility, so perhaps it would be best to try your luck with your own casting equipment.
Cheers,
