My favourite childhood uniform kit

This uniform kit was my favourite...I really liked the colours and badges and of course the jackboots...that has never turned into an adult fetish by the way!  

Thought I'd bring it out and dust it off once more with a proper VAM modelling it this time round. My childhood figure still needs fixing up. All of the uniform is original circa 1970 apart from the replacement guns and grenades...oh and the cap of course which I use with this set just because I think it looks good... Gives it a bit of French feel in my minds eye.

This set of photos was set out to portray the full kit and then for 'The Man' to get stripped back and pull some action poses. The black t-shirt and shoulder holster were added in to make the stripped back shots work better.

This VAM's head is smaller than the original, so I had to put some folded tissue padding in the helmet to make it sit properly... 


Now that brings back memories!
