I like the casual non-combat poses... and I think the female actually looks... well, female

Useful figures no doubt, but the Lara Croft look of the female is a bit silly. Of course it makes a nice painting subject i'm sure and yes its nice to see a female figure that actually looks female (take note Plus Model!!!!!) but I haven't seen too many women like that serving in the military, especially wearing such tight BDU's......

The Lara Croft "girly" look is what I like about her.. I just think she would lighten up any "serious" military diorama
She would also be good for a what-if futuristic dio.

Hi Hisham,
There's no doubt she looks female.
I'm not crazy about her head looking into the sky.I agree with Rob that the pants seem overly tight.Also,the hip belt doesn't have a holster or anything on it.Looks more like a fashion accessory.Last,though I don't really know,her boots look like something our daughters would buy,not for combat.
