I am doing a bit of research into a Vietnam project and I thought the comparison of the various manufacturers might be of interest to other gamers, so here is is.
If there are any manufacturers I have missed out, I would love to hear about them!
27/04/2020 at 08:31 #135413ian pillayParticipantNice little comparison. I agree H&R would sell bucket loads more if they had photos of all their ranges.
Irregular look a little blobby compared to the micro armour figures.
Not sure of any other manufacturers that do ‘nam in 6 mm or even in 10mm….

Thanks very much Gaz, I will amend forthwith. I had thought that referred to the number of models on the base (which is also 3)…
Now amended.

Pendraken have an Indo-China range and a Vietnam range in 10mm plus stuff in other ranges that would fit in. Boats to buffalo and lots in between!

A good point, which I have added in.

Don’t forget the old Mainforce line of mostly prone figures, available from Magister Militum in the UK – a good option for modern periods – a nice Vietnam range there – the VC are nicely modelled:

They come in packs, or also as individual bases at £0.40 each….
