I've pointed this out in a previous post, but if you compare the 3D digital model with the 2D mock-up you will notice a slight change in shirt design. The 3D digital model is the same as the basic Army Rifleman with the t-shirt under the fatigue shirt. Not a complaint, just an observation. It does make me wonder if they will keep the buttoned-up collar design of the SEAL figures though.
Also, I tagged MJ on Facebook in a few questions about the KS: 1. Will the do-rags and berets also be available in camo paint schemes since certain special forces/MAC-V SOG units wore tiger-striped head gear? 2. How will the Vietnamese figures be shorter? Total proportions or just legs? 3. Where will the connecting ports be on the ALICE pack? More specifically, will there be a way to attach the LAW rocket launcher to the top of the pack? Jason |

MSPainting the Duke digisculpt next to Charlie's digisculpt tells me they haven't done Charlie's enshortening yet. This digisculpt is likely from the stage right before that where they're approving the base design with the digital assets already on hand.

Another update, NVA soldier which would be a bit shorter than US troops. This is the way!

More details and avail info for this IMMENSE project to follow. We hope you like what is on the way! Thanks again for your support! Marauder-John & MGR Team

I hope they send out some more digital renders to backers soon. I’m excited to see the SEALs and LRRPs.

I’d like to see how that Robin Olds head sculpt turns out.

Not necessarily because of the real-life pilot, but that Jet Pilot figure is the one I'm most excited about. I think the head sculpt will fill in a lot of customizing gaps for characters with mustaches.
There are several mock-up designs that resemble Vietnam war-era characters such as Air-Cav Pilot = Duvall, LRRP = Dafoe, Tunnel Rat = Sheen; SEAL = Berenger. I've been watching Tour of Duty and getting some ideas on building figures. Jason |
