Special Pack – M55 Quad Gun + M55 Crew At Rest Big Set 1/35

Historical Context & Theme

The M55 Quad Gun, an anti-aircraft weapon system based on the M45 Quadmount, saw extensive service during the Vietnam War, protecting bases and convoys against enemy air and ground attacks. This special set captures a quiet moment between operations — a break in the tropical heat where soldiers pause from constant tension.
The M55 Crew At Rest Big Set portrays American gunners in natural, human poses, highlighting the realism and authenticity of Vietnam-era daily life. This combination of weapon and figures provides a balanced representation of both the machine and the men behind it, embodying the grit and fatigue of modern warfare.

Figure Details & Realism

The three resin figures are sculpted in 1/35 scale with two interchangeable heads per figure, offering flexibility and expressive variation. Each pose represents a relaxed moment — sitting, leaning, or handling equipment — designed to complement the M55 Quad Gun’s structure.
Uniform details, body language, and facial expressions are finely crafted to reflect Vietnam-era U.S. Army attire, including fatigues, boots, and personal gear. The natural resting poses add emotional weight and storytelling depth to any display.

Diorama & Display Use

Ideal for Vietnam War dioramas, this set lets modelers recreate maintenance scenes, rest moments, or defensive setups. The M55 Quad Gun serves as a striking centerpiece, while the resting crew brings realism and context to the display. It fits perfectly into jungle bases, dusty roadsides, or outpost defenses — anywhere soldiers might gather during downtime.
By combining the weapon’s technical presence with the humanity of its operators, the diorama gains a cinematic, immersive quality.

Material & Customization

The M55 Quad Gun plastic kit features highly detailed parts and smooth assembly, while the resin crew figures offer precision sculpting and crisp definition. Both are unpainted, giving modelers total freedom in painting and weathering.
Customization possibilities include adjusting facial heads, positioning, or adding small personal accessories like ammunition boxes, sandbags, or water cans. The combination of plastic and resin ensures top-tier realism and a professional finish.

Who It’s For

This special pack is ideal for intermediate to expert modelers, historical enthusiasts, and collectors who want to recreate authentic Vietnam War scenes. Perfect for those who appreciate storytelling through diorama building, it’s a ready-to-build combo offering both a mechanical and human dimension to your modeling project.
