Okay, I think by now it's time to raise the call again...
Does anyone believe that figure companies, resin or plastic, are falling behind the times, AGAIN?
I ask this is because years back there were hardly any figures in ACUs. Now after Afghanistan and Iraq, there's a huge influx of ACU figures from various (mostly resin) makers. Have resin figure makers caught up to the times of your nation? Seems like the only nation's soldiers that is reflected to today's uniforms is Russia. Am I wrong?
So how about U.S. Multicam figures? Yes, a resin company has a few offerings, but what about the rest of the figure makers who released so many ACU figures?
A Russian resin maker has blessed us ultra-modern U.S. guns, heads, communications, and tidbits other makers often neglect. However, I think it's time for the (resin) figure makers to catch up to 2012 and make figures that reflect the times or risk falling behind yet again. I mean it's been a few years already and Multicam has already been worn in the field for a while now.
What do you think? Am I jumping the gun here since ACU seems pretty standard, or do you think the figure makers are slipping? What nation's figures need to be brought up to 2012?
(One thing I've noticed is a lot reflect the desert. Why no jungle, Artic, woodland, or night ops?).
