Masterbox 1/35 'Jungle Patrol'
KIT #: MB 3595
PRICE: $17.95 SRP
DECALS: None
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: Four figures

I believe that MasterBox is one of the few companies that are doing Vietnam war figures. This particular set includes four figures with a variety of weapons. The box art makes it very difficult to see the figures clearly as they blend in with the jungle, but most are carrying an M-16 while one has a heavier machine gun (probably an M-60).

The kit includes two nicely done sprues as well as enough gear to enable the modeler to do something a bit different from the box art.  All are outfitted with helmets on the box art, but the kit does include options in terms of a soft hats, different back pack arrangements and all of the figures have slightly different poses that are possible, thanks to the inclusion of different arms.

A nice set for the Vietnam War modeler.
