While the modern figures aren't my cup o' tea, the American Indians look very interesting, particularly, "Remote Shot'.

But this one is a modern pointing German, he learned from his grandfathers in the World War II sets.

Even though the Native Americans look to be really well done and represented...only two figures per set?? Looks really sparse when previous MB figure sets contained up to 7 or 8 figures.

He is not really pointing as all 5 fingers are aligned. He has just slam dunked his water bottle into the nearest trash receptacle and is yelling "3 points!"

He is motioning for the private to dig the latrine "Somewhere over there."

I agree. The "remote shot " IMO would have better if it had been a Woodland Indian with a long rifle musket taking bead on General Braddock perhaps?
And rather than US Cavalry how about Roger's Rangers?

Unexpected subjects but I'm pleased with the modern German as I have a specific need. The native figures do look good though.

That MasterBox is going where no model company has gone before is great. Some confederate soldiers and cavalry would be cool also. The Indian war sets are 1 of a kind unless you want to pay resin or metal prices. I'll be patient as they can only do so much at a time.
