Hello!
See full picture of first figure
It is an experimental figure for understanding of some details
It will be changed. I will give a variant in full heavy equipment and a realistic variant in every day equipment. Here you can see completely correct IOTV body armor

I plan to give it in 1/35 scale. What do you think of other scales, may be 1/16 or other?

If you can offer some figures in 1/16 scale, that would be really great. I would definitely buy one of each.

Looking really good Yaroslav!

1/35 sounds good for figures, I think there is a bigger market for 1/35 figures than larger scales, but it would be great if you could do some figures in 1/16 scale as well... I love painting 1/16 scale figures.

Yaroslav congratulations for your work! I already own several kits which look as great as in the pictures! Concerning the figure: Magnificent detail!! This is going to be a novelty in 1/35 or 1/16 scale! Estimating date of release??

Hello Yaroslav,

what about 1:24 or 1:25 scale?

There is nearly nothing to find in that scale (except tons of civil vehicles and some modern armour by KFS)....

best regards

That looks fantastic.

I think 1/35 is for vehicle builders who want figures for a diorama and 1/16 for figure builders who tend to do them stand alone. Both will be a good market for you and I'll buy some of both even the same figure in both scales.

Keep up the good work!

Hi Yaroslav,

Great-looking figure! Some of the "first items" in a figure whether 1/35 or 120mm.

I think both 1/35 and 1/16 would be very welcome additions. For sure, no one ever made a figure with SCAR or faceshield as yours has yet.

Do you think you could release a 1/35 and 1/16 figure of this before 2013?

Awesome figure. If this comes out as a 1/16th scale figure, I would happily prepay for one one.

Keep up the good work.

Yaroslav,

This looks super, a real treat for mordern armour builders. 1/35 and a larger scale would be awsone, a definate winner.

All I would say is, that if it possible i would construct the 1/35 figures with separate arms & legs (or lower section), as from my perspective being able to vary the poses this would greatly increase their appeal (if that is possible), so a four man basic team could easily become a 8 man team. and also when combined with your accessories sets, could also be used to compliment other ranges.

Here I have added one of your helmets to an Evolution Minatures figure.

Yaroslav,

The detail on this figure looks amazing! The IOTV looks perfect and is a very timely addition since most figure sets feature the older style body armor. Will you consider selling sets of just 4 or 5 torsos with the IOTV, rather than whole figures? I think a set with various armor plate carriers will do very well, too.

I'm still anxiously awaiting your minigun sets and uncovered ACH/MICH helmets. I'm addicted to Live Resin's level detail!

Keep up the great work!

The ITOV is the Gen2 variant, and his version is very well done and accurate.

Hi Steve, i dont think it can be called a Buffalo anymore. Have sent you an email, so as not to hijack Yaroslav's thread,.

Yaroslav, have You mentioned anywhere, what version of HMWWV it will be? If not, could You give any photo of the real vehicle?

I am really loving the stuff you make dude!

I just ordered the MK19 set for my MaxxPro MRAP

If I could make a request, maybe in the future we could see a Barrett M107, especially for EOD and SOF setups

Yaroslav - Will we see the miniguns this month?

I think a lot of us are eagerly awaiting their release!

Thank you.
