This is interesting. I don't know about the usefulness of having the rocket warheads though...perhaps they can be on display at an arms bazaar or displayed in mid-air in flight.
The newer tube RPGs should be a very welcome addition to those who want to model modern Russian figures with state-of-the-art LAW weapons besides the RPG-7.

You could have one guy aiming a loaded RPG, and a second guy holding reload projectiles.

Should have made more RPG7 rounds and a backpack but still good to have.

True, for the RPG-7 only as that's reloadable. The Russian LAWs are single-shot throwaway rocket tubes with the rocket self-contained inside for firing.
I mean it's still good if anyone wants to model (say) an Active Protection System defeating an incoming warhead.
