I wonder how many other Braille Scale modellers would like to see more coverage of British figures armed with SLRs etc. I often plan to tackle Falklands War and Northern Ireland dioramas, but find it difficult to source decent figures (either 1/76 or 1/72 scale).
I know that the old Matchbox set of Paras was re-released by Revell, but only a couple of figures in the set are of any use (not helped by them being made of polythene).
It would be wonderful if someone could release a set (preferably with separate arms, heads and weapons ... similar to the US figures provided by Dragon to accompany their LCM3 kit).
Any thoughts?

id love to see them in 1/35. There's a few resin offerings but nothing in plastic.

How about ancient ESCI NATO figures set - they contained at least one fig with SLR and one running with GPMG. Bit soft on details, but ahead form Matchbox ones
