Wow!! He's been busy... great looking set.. My only criticism would be that after releasing the set and selling enough of it, he doesn't start offering the figures separately, and those big sets tend to be expensive

I think some figures were sold separately from the rest of the sets... the Spec Ops Land Rover crew comes to mind. I will ask about the possibility of ordering the figures separately.

I can't remember seeing any of his figures being sold separately, but I hope he does consider this as a regular practice with all his sets.. I've read comments by several people saying how much they like the figures, but that they're not willing to pay upwards of $70 for the whole set with stowage and all.

Brilliant. Now how to combine them with a US M113 in the same diorama!

I don't know how closely they operated but do a search on Operation Paddington, which included, in part, the 7th RAR and the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment.

Wow, that set just made my day.
I'm in love with all the Australian stuff from Bravo6, Callsign/Firestorm and now AC Models.

Some of these figs might look good as tank riders on AFV's Aussie Centurian.

Aussie AFV crew and a New Zealand Infantry Section will be my take
