Two new sets of figures have been announced by Master Box, both covering US modern soldiers.

Hope they all have the ACH/MICH as the dude with the left handed grip, weapon at the ready has the old Kevlar style helmet?

It's a real shame that the Masterbox figures suck! because I purchase every box of them based on the art work alone! great art! I just wish that they were the level of the Dragon Gen2 figures; they too need a lot of work but at least they are a fair start.

The poses are good and I like the fact that they took into account that there are Soldiers out there who are left handed. The Infantrymen do have the ACH/MICH helmets. I'll get both sets.

The weapons are a strange mix of older era stuff. I guess Live Resin sets would come in handy...

Useful!

I find it interesting how each new plastic release adds a little more features and accessories to the market. True, Live-Resin will fill in a huge gap as the IBAs lack accessories on the top MOLLE loops and there are no radios or holsters. But some figures do have sleeve pouches, sunshades, knee pads, and other neat items. Again, little-by-little new plastic items are added. What is needed is for plastic figure companies to come out with a wide range of accessories and features for their figures.
