Dragon IDF Paratroops

Dave has sent me some pic's of his Dragon Israeli Defence Force Paratroops he has been working on over the last week or so.
It took Dave quite a while to get the IDF uniform colour just right.

RPG and loader (mule) along with a Radio Operator.

Lovely detail on the facial features.

Of course the Galil is now out of front line service with the IDF, and the M16/M4 versions that replaced it in the Army are now likely to be replaced with the Tavor MTAR 21.

FN MAG Gunner, the GPMG looks a little less chunky than it should towards the barrel end.

The stretcher is a nice touch.

Looking like a John Travolta strut, the 40mm Under and over Grenade launcher.

The original box. Lovely work again from Dave. Just itching for a diorama setting.
