VN011
First Legion
First Legion adds the first of the Vietnamese; in this case infantry of the North Vietnamese Army. These figures feature the same high quality as the US Soldiers, and can be used for most NVA Infantry regiments throughout the course of the war. These new figures allow interesting diorama opportunities to emerge in the jungles and paddies of Southeast Asia, and on your display shelves!
Uniforms and equipment were a bit more standardized in the NVA or Viet Minh, as opposed to the southern fighters, called Viet Cong. This infantryman carries the Soviet made AK47, a weapon that was far more reliable than the American Army's standard issue rifle.
