VC

 

Local VC from Orion in 1/72nd scale plastic.  Light machine gunner.
Female soldier.
Bicycle supply soldier.
With his bike.  Either I am missing something or he does not fit well with the bike.
Bikes were used to carry supplies from North Vietnam to South because you could carry a lot of weight easily and then ride back up north for the next load.

I`ve seen pics where they were walking the bikes and had a pole tied too the handle bars.

Yes, tsold that is what this figure is supposed to represent but it was not executed well. A bike can carry a heavy load and then you ride it back to North Vietnam to pick up another six mortar shells.
Thanks for reading.
