The figures are broken down into split lower bodies an upper body, two arms and a head. Three are in desert uniforms while the other three are in early pre-war black uniforms.

The all-important posing of the figures is good with most in very casual poses. The detail however is a little soft and a tad below par given the great leaps plastic figures have attained in recent years. That’s not to say these figures are bad by any stretch, they just need a little work refining the details.

Given the low pricing on these compared to resin figures, you really can’t go wrong with these.

Thanks to Gecko Models for the sample
