UN Peacekeepers?
Posted by Glamdring on Tuesday, September 2, 2008 10:26 PM
I'm looking for a 1/35 UN peacekeeper to go with the FV107 Scimitar I just built, to give a sense of the size of the vehicle.  Does anybody make a set of Peacekeepers, or a single figure?  If not, what would be a good set that I could modify to suit the British Peacekeepers in the Balkans?

Stick a blue "Smurf Helmet" on any figure ya want... UN troops wear the uniform of their home country and the UN helmet/beret with UN patches on the uniform.  Most UN helmets are US K-pots these days,  but if you go earlier, steel pots were the headgear... AFV crews have blue CVC helmets for manning the vehicle.

Hi just letting you know that British troops wear there own  helmet type (not the friz type). UN kit as stated before is from there own country. Do a search on google for modern Brit army. ( you could also try Brit army recuting sites as well). Just trying to help. Cheers Pete
