    This is one of the latest figures from Bravo 6 which depicts a U.S. Army Special Forces Officer in Vietnam. The Kit is cast in light grey resin and consists of seven resin parts. The figure is 54mm in scale.

    All parts are supplied in the standard type bravo 6 box with small parts in poly zip lock bags.

    A close inspection of the main figure shows the quality and crispness of detail and casting of the figure. As stated before in previous Bravo 6 reviews, this is some of the best resin casting I have seen in 54mm scale.

    The main figure has only the mould block at the feet to remove, the rest of the figure is very clean.

    Left and right views of the figure.

    The lower section of the right arm is cast with the M16 machine gun, careful removal of the piece from the mould block is required.

    The left arm is cast in a single section and locates nicely to the main figure. Also seen is the additional equipment, knife, canteen and pouches, all show a good level of detail and clean casting.

    Conclusion:

    Another fine release and addition to the Bravo 6 Nam range of figures. All parts show an exceptional amount of detail and the quality of the casting is outstanding. Highly recommended

    Hi Tommi, thanks for the great review of this figure, would I be a mile off the mark if I was to think this is a depiction of John Wayne playing Colonel in the film "The Green Berets." The use of the name Kirby is interesting as Wayne played another character this time with the christian name Kirby when he played Capt. Kirby York in Fort Apache.
    See you soon
