History:
Throughout the 1960s and 70s, life in Southern Vietnam was deeply rooted in agricultural tradition. Water buffalo were indispensable for rice farming, used for ploughing fields, hauling carts, and transporting goods across muddy terrain. These sturdy animals were a daily sight across the region’s rural landscape, vital to sustaining local communities.
This detailed 1/35 scale set from Gecko Models brings the authentic charm of Vietnam’s countryside to life. Featuring two buffalo, a farmer, and period-accurate tools, it offers a valuable civilian element to Vietnam War dioramas. Whether paired with military vehicles or displayed in a quiet village scene, the set helps modellers portray the lived reality of those who endured the era outside the battlefield.
Perfect for adding depth and narrative to any Vietnam War setting, this kit blends cultural nuance with outstanding sculpting to provide both realism and emotional impact.
