New Project Announcement 200401
« on: April 01, 2020, 02:03:45 pm »
Rubicon Models is to release plastic figures for the Vietnam War (Chiến tranh Việt Nam) this year.  Two armies are planned for the initial release - Việt Cộng (National Liberation Front) and the US Army (United States Army), followed by the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) and the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN) at a later date.  These plastic figures will be moulded in green and grey colour so that they can still be played without the need to paint them.  More info will be available later, stay tuned.



Enjoy!
;)

Due to it being before 1200 here (and timing varying by culture), this does get treated with a degree of scepticism.

Hmm , grey and  green plastic army men ? Well Ok , but IMO the sculpts aren't up to Rubicon's usual standard , they look like something you would get in a bag from the Dollar store .  Hopefully this is an April fools joke
