Hi everyone,
I've searched past posts for help but most seem a little outdated. I'm doing a dio depicting an Army patrol dismounting from their M1025 Humvee.
What figures would most accurately depict Army troops from around '03-05? I read that in plastic combining Dragon and Tamiya kits would do it. I know Blast has some great figures but I'm trying to keep the cost down since I'll need four figures.
It gets kind of confusing with all the options there are out there, not to mention the uniform and gear that was used in different time frames. Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you, Frank and Alex! Is it correct that the Tamiya modern figures should be used with other kits just for the equipment being more accurate?
