Preview Soldier Story 1/6th scale " SPECIAL DUTIES UNIT (Assault Leader)" 12-inch figure

The Special Duties Unit (Abbreviation: SDU; Chinese: 特別任務連, nicknamed Flying Tigers 飛虎隊) is an elite paramilitary tactical unit of the Hong Kong Police Force. Established in July 1974, it is a sub-division of the Police Tactical Unit (PTU). Its primary functions include counter-terrorism, hostage rescue and dealing with crimes (usually involving firearms) which are considered too dangerous for regular police to handle. The unit was formerly trained by the British SAS before the handover of Hong Kong to China.

The SDU has enjoyed quite the exposure in 1:6 scale, though not as much as the Navy SEALs but they were one of the first few special force units to be released as 12-inch action figures, all thanks to Dragon Models Limited (DML) more than 16 years ago. Check out my toy blog post HERE of the Dragon Models SDU team. Hot Toys caught on next and released their muscled bodies SDU duo (posted HERE and HERE). The muscle bodies didn't last - see "Hot Toys SDU all cracked up!" post HERE but thankfully, except for the body, all the parts could be saved. See "Hot Toys 1/6 SDU 12-inch Assaulter Figure Redo" pictures HERE.
