trumpeter models make a couple of good sets in 1/35th scale, they came with the camo decal wich i didn't use I stuck to old fashioned paint, the one thing i liked about them was there were many options for weapons.

Thanks Chad some of the Trumpeter figs from the ISAF Soldiers in Afghanistan set have the right poses- I wonder is the cut of the uniform they wear at home the same?

Thanks guys. If the uniform suits I'll probably go with the trumpeter figs as the poses are near to what I want. I want to make a checkpoint so although I like those figures Frenchy they won't work for me.
I like the look of some of the DOLP figures-thanks Gabor
