THe sculpts on these figures are miles ahead of Valaverse, if the digital renders match the finished product. Last edited by TheSteelBrigade; 11-16-2022 at 03:25 PM.. |

I'll be honest - I don't need my fantasy military guys to be 100% accurate to IRL clothing. I'd rather they look interesting.
Valaverse dudes in IRL fatigues fighting Sci-Fi Swarm dudes looks dumb as hell. Pick a frigging vision and stick with it, Bobby. |

I'm going to go ahead and pre order them all. Those enemy troop builders can fit in any display.

I think the black officer head could work in a pinch, but it sure would be nice if they included a red-helmet/mask as the alternate head with the red Sleepwalker trooper. This would make me more likely to PO rather than hoping I can cobble things together to get past that final yard.

The color schemes make them look like something a weekend paintballer would wear. When the pants are also the exact same color as the shirt, it makes it look like a bodysuit / coveralls, which no military uses as a combat outfit (Marauder's figures also suffer from this). I won't overload the thread with pictures, but if you look at most soldiers, they wear something more like a camo uniform with gear over it and not something someone with an airsoft rifle might pick up at an outdoor store. Here is one shot from army.mil:

These are cool. Wound up preordering Van Helsing, Dracula, Nocturnal and Urban (reminds me of a Range Viper) Delta Red Troopers. I'm curious if they'll scale better with Classified or Marvel Legends, or somewhere inbetween.

Professional (recruitment) pics are always different. It's not uncommon that under the vests is likely just a solid sand/coyote colored sweat-wicking material like what TheSteelBrigade posted. It's just the sleeves that are cammo'd. Now if they're walking around town, they'll use the standard ABU top that's fully cammo'd.
