I saw these while on Hobby Search and should be released sometime in September:

Looked kind of neat with a modern theme and with PMC's playing a large role in today's conflicts some creative ideas could be had.

Some of the poses I do not like and lf you bought both you could a nice stack.

Here's a couple of better drawings off Trumpeter's site.

They're very interesting. I just hope their quality is better than some of Trumpeter's past figures.

These had been listed in the Trumpeter catalogue since the beginning of the year. They look pretty cool and Trumpeter figures have been improving a lot recently. Also listed where a US mortar team, US vehicle crew and two sets of GECON ISAF figures.

Here's the mortat team and another infantry set.

I guess a couple of figures from the crew set already come with the newer stryker kits. If they're like the ones I have, then their quality is not too bad. But the heads... well...

Yes I believe that a couple of the figures from the US vehicle crew set came with the M1127 stryker release. The poses and gear are pretty good, nothing a bit of basic modelling wont improve. The heads are indeed rather rough but then most of the heads in all the masterbox and miniart sets that everyone raves about arent brilliant.

Hi guys.
The figures look great.
One question.
Somewhere along the line I've missed something.
What exactly is a PCM crew?

PMC = Private Military Contractor

Thank you so much Hisham.
That certainly explains the half uniforms.

I wonder if Chenny will get a cut from the P.M.C. figures.

Trumpeter figures have certainly improved and I look forward to these one, but it is the mortar crew I am waiting on to finish a small project

cheers
