Perhaps not really "news material" to some, as we have seen these figures on our forums... However, Master Box just sent us complete info and photos about their neweset figure sets.
35159 - It is Snickers, please, help yourself

35163 - The cargo is packed, send the transport

These two sets contain modern day figures, displaying very different scenes from Afghanistan. The first set contains 7 figures and a dog, showing a humanitarian aspect of the conflict, while the other depicts Special Forces operatives with their prisoner waiting to be extracted.

Master Box also prepared a WWII figure set:

35164 - US Paratroopers and British Tank man, France 1944

We'll show you the boxart photos as soon as we get the images from Master Box.

Mhhh...a Dutch girl in France...in 1944. Must be the red-white-blue she's waving;-). Very nice set...will need a British Sherman in France for it. Let's see if I can find one, this just looks too good...

I was referring to the episode in Band of Brothers that had a dutch girl along the road. That's all. J

Re the woman in "Snickers," her head will need to be replaced if you want accuracy; no Islamic head covering looks like that. For once I'd like to see a model company pay as much attention to detail with Arab clothing as they do with military details.once again we have an Arab civilian figure wearing fantasy clothing that looks nothing like real Arab clothing.

Re the US "paratroopers," it looks like they're wearing M1943 uniforms so they can be used as generic infantry, which is great.

For the paras thats a scene from Band of Brothers, Part 4. The guys for the LAV look real nice alone or together. I'd though prefer more specialized weapons for the other set of figures.

Anybody know where the Italian Infantry went from the 'in progress' section....?

That, or they were watching us pass out candy bars in Iraq. Subverting the enemy by causing their kids to get high on Hersheys.... lol MM's went over real well too

I cant wait for the Paratroopers hopefully they are in M1943 uniforms and fit to Market Garden. I just love to rebuild scenes from Movies, TVShows and historic pictures. love you master box It great when Companys listen to modelers like master box and miniArt (I wrote to them at the beginning and talked a lot about some normandy figues ...later they pronounced the us paratroopers and now the horsemen and i also talked and wrote with them about the upcomming ardennes set its so great to actually write with people in charge)
