Warriors 1/35
USMC OIF Set #1

Warriors is one of the product lines that come from the creative minds of VLS. They've produced a wide range of resin military figures that feature great detail and simple construction. Here is another release of interest. Click on the photo to see an enlarged view.

In this set, we have the first of a two part set of US Marine Corps soldiers from Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). These figures are highly detailed and represent the equipment and gear used by contemporary US military personnel. Note the kneepads that are now a necessity for urban combat. While these soldiers are wearing them over their BDUs, the next generation of US combat uniforms will have internal pockets for kneepads.

Both figures are standing and in a firing pose. These will look good in a vignette with an M1025 HMMWV.

My sincere thanks to VLS for this review sample!
