1980's RM Commandos Coy

A lovely day here today, and time to show Company 1 of my 1980's Royal Marine Commando Unit. Three stands (Troops) per Coy for CD3. Above two Matchbox NATO Para's armed with SLR's in this Troop.
Command Stand with ESCI Figure handling the Sterling SMG, while the Radio Operator is from Matchbox.
The 3rd Troop, with both figures being once again Matchbox. The lack of figures means some double ups in some Coys. Lovely poses and mouldings. Bring them back Revell!
Whole Company on show. That show keep the Bootneck happy!

  10. Hi Tim,These were one of the best sets I think. I quite liked the SLR myself, it had a nice safe meaty feel about them.

    Cheers Paul.
