20mm mystery figures

Can anyone identify the manufacturer of these figures? They may even be home castings... I got them as part of a job lot from a Fields of Fire Reloaded member back in 2013. They look like they're ARVN but they could be US.







Most of them are broken - I'm contemplating whether to fix them up and base them semi-hidden in bunkers and/or slit trenches.

100% all platoon 20

That's what I "thought" but air bubbles knows.

I had a few at one time, but I have never been big on prone figures except LMG crews when I have walking ones to substitute when appropriate. But your idea, OTB, sounds good. Can't use them to be marching down the road.

Thanks guys. Another possibility is using them as markers to indicate that stands are lying down, as Crossfire has provision for doing that.

I think the last prone one is from the modern british with LSW , ( the prone firing figure with rifle above that might also be from the modern brit range ) but yes the others are pretty much all 100% vietnam.
Remember when these figs came out about 1983 ish , they were the cutting edge of wargames figures !!!
prone figures much like grenade throwers are the bane of figure makers lives , the vast majority don't want them ... but there are a few people that REALLY love them .

I must admit that I was less than impressed when I found them in the bottom of the box.

I do like to have prone figures, if I can. Not a necessity, but there was a time when I did have prone, crouch, standing and running poses for 5 characters for an RPG back in the day... (previous to that we used GI Joes for playing the RECON RPG!)
