In addition to a 1:6th scale action figure of Chris Taylor (see our story HERE (https://www.figures.com/forums/news/11278-mms-platoon-chris-taylor.html)), Hot Toys will be releasing another realistic figure from Oliver Stone's critically accalimed war film, Platoon: Sergeant Barnes.

This detailed collectible is specially crafted based on the image of Sergeant Barnes as played by Tom Berenger in the movie. The figure features a newly developed head sculpted by upcoming artist Ms Song Hye Hyun (who also worked on the previous Chris Taylor head sculpt), with paint and art direction by JC Hong and Kojun respectively.
