What was the French Infantryman Called?

Post by Thundershot »

Hi all,

Going through the (very few) :af: backing in my collection I noticed that the French :grunt: mail-a-way offer doesn't seem to name or give the figure a description of any kind..

Has anyone ever seen a mint complete French offer mailer?
Did it come with a file card of any description?

As for the English mail-a-ways (I only ever sent away for Star Wars offers), in the way of paperwork, what did you receive?

For some reason I think they came just in a Baggie in a white box but I might be wrong.

He was a trooper so he wouldn't have a name. I think it was fitting that his US codename was Grunt.

I'd bet it was only BAF that gave him any recognition, otherwise he'd have gotten the same treatment as the other mailaways. Love that artwork.
