    Cool fig. Any plans for a figureline in 120mm?
  4. Ong Active Member

    Cool! This has got to be one of the most heavily armed 1/35 modern resin figures on market! Consider this: 300 (or more) rounds of 7.62mm, around 240 rounds of 5.56mm, one hand grenade, and 15 rounds in the pistol.

    Generally the machine gunner doesn't carry an M4/M16, only his sidearm. The M240B that he is carrying weighs almost 28 lb by itself, not counting the ammo. Were I doing this fig I would leave off the M16A4 altogether.

    Over armed? Is that possible? Maybe he's one bad ass devil-dog? Nice work, team, sure to be a winner for you.

    Many uses for scissors like that, it is common to have them. Useful for many things and carried frequently.

    Nice! So the real Marine actually does carry a M-16A4...Assistant Gunner, perhaps?

    Regarding the AM 120mm figures, that's exciting news? Will the 120mm figures be direct copies of the 1/35 figures, or new designs? Will the 120mm figures release in 2016? I'm prepped to buy the 1/35 figures, but if the 120mm ones are direct copies, just enlarged, I may just wait for the 120mm version. Thanks for the answers!

    Did someone say that that figure may be released in 1/16 scale (120mm is a length)? Then put me down for one, thank you.

    120mm?? Count me in.

    The 120mm figures won't be dirrect copies. They will be in new design.
  16. MrBMB A Fixture

    Yes 120mm please :)
  17. Sgt. Red Active Member

    When can we expect them?
  18. Ong Active Member

    And will the first 120mm figures be modern British, U.S., WW2, Russian, Vietnam, or....?
