After releasing the figure in 1/35 scale, ANT Miniatures decided to offer this masterpiece in larger scale as well: Assault Trooper with M240L Machine Gun and MICO Pack Ammo Can.

Nice review, Mario! The figure is fantastic! I waited and opted for buying the 1/16 version instead of the 1/35 version, but both scales look incredible.
The MICOgunner is by far one of the most state-of-the-art modern U.S. Special Forces figures on market today! The NVGs, MICO pack, and M240L really make it special. Hooray for ANT and Peter Samofalov!

This is a super cool figure. Great review.
The only complaint I have is on the dudes body armor. Right at the very top is a rank tab.
I haven't seen too many Captains humping that weapon and ammo!

I know this already since I have figures of both scales, but what a difference between 1/35 and 1/16 scale!
That is why I am becoming a fan of 1/24 and 1/20 figures although there's hardly any in (modern) military subjects, but they do exist in Sci-Fi and civilian figures. 1/24 and 1/20 scale is not too big and not too small with a price that's pretty good in-between the 1/35 and 1/16 scales.

Hi Guys I've been wondering about the "side handle" from where the soldier is holding the M240 (left hand) I've been trying to find references online and nothing! thanks!
