Display ideas and companion pieces
Keep the backpack visible from at least one main viewing angle. The figure can sit behind an advancing line or between a vehicle and a group at a halt. A walking radioman supplies continuity between those groups without requiring a large command-post diorama.
What to check before buying
Compare the radio pack, carbine, hands and walking stance with BBA102's image. Request a rear view when buying used, since a frontal photograph can conceal the most distinctive equipment. Check that the figure is not one half of the separately numbered BBA097 command pair.
