The Tunnel Rat Team Set

The Tunnel Rat Team – Vietnam War U.S. Infantry
Model: VN156
Scale: 1/30
Finish: Matte

This three-man set vividly portrays one of the most dangerous roles of the Vietnam War: the tunnel rat. As American forces uncovered vast underground complexes used by the Viet Cong, brave volunteers were needed to crawl into these dark, narrow spaces in search of intelligence—or enemies. In this hand-painted matte set, two standing infantrymen, one with a machete and the other with a shotgun, have just uncovered a tunnel entrance. Beside them, the true tunnel rat—pistol and flashlight in hand—crawls toward the opening, ready to descend into the unknown. Each figure is sculpted with extraordinary attention to detail, capturing the tension, bravery, and grit of this harrowing task. A powerful and historically significant addition to any Vietnam War diorama or collection.
