Rather interesting. That bullpup does seem a mesh of those two riffles.
Closest real world counterpart I could figure for that baroness gun was a UTS15, but those lack the hand guard around the grip. What about Ultimate Flint's bullpup?

It's a Bushmaster M17S. It's an assault rifle based on the ArmTech C30R from the mid-1980s that was supposed compete with the Steyr Aug in a competition to be Australia's standard infantry weapon.

I think the smaller m4 style carbine is actually an HK416.

Thanks ZuluDelta. That bullpup Flint co.es with has been bugging me. Back in WV, a gun shop has a civilian version of the M17 I wanted so bad. But tgat was 15 years ago and I could not remember the riffle name for the life of me.

Yeah, I think so, too. Not the current HK416 A5 model with the flip-up mechanical sights and proprietary telescopic stock, but one of the earlier models that used rear rotary diopter sights and M4-style telescopic stock:
Ultimate Duke carbine HK416 (early production D10RS variant) Of course, given how overwhelmingly similar modern AR15-style carbines look and the limits of what can be sculpted in detail in the 1:18 scale, it could be anything really, and the idea that it's a short-barreled M4/C8 with an IUR (integrated upper receiver) or any other AR15 carbine derivative with an IUR-style build is just as sound a conjecture.

What about the extra shotguns that can attach to the drone? What are those guns based off of? Oh and the helmet, does that exist in real life?

Offhand, it looks like a the "A-Bravo" Half-Head Military Helmet made by Pro-Tec like the ones seen here, (and yeah, it's made by the same company that makes those popular bike and skateboarding helmets). A-Bravo military helmet made by Pro-Tec The helmets don't offer real ballistic protection like the standard US Army Advanced Combat Helmet or the USMC's Lightweight Helmet nor are they type-classified standard gear (although they are made via government contract), but they're supposedly a popular choice in US military spec ops and police SWAT circles.

You could say the same thing about the AKM-style Joe/Cobra stuff as well. As an example, I personally think the PoC Cobra Shock Trooper is armed with a vz. 58 decked out with modern upgrades (the Shock Trooper's rifle doesn't have the huge gas tube you see in the AK-47/AKM/AK-74) but it looks close enough to an AKM-derived weapon that I don't get bent out of shape when folks here or elsewhere refer to it as such. Cobra Shock Trooper rifle vz. 58 assault rifle customized with various FAB Defense parts (And speaking of the vz. 58, I'm fairly certain 30th Anniversary/Renegades Firefly comes with a vz. 58 rifle as well. One of the Hasbro toy designers is obviously a fan of Czech firearms.) Last edited by zuludelta; 11-30-2013 at 09:34 PM.. Reason: added images |

Colt Canada C8IUR-10 You can always say that it is removable and can be placed on any, but seeing as it is standard on the 416 it makes much more sense. The pistol grip however is a variant G27 or some such. Can be fitted to any AR like weapon. Last edited by haradrel; 11-30-2013 at 10:20 PM.. |
