This release from Trumpeter features four US Marine figures with the current equipment used in Operation Iraqi Freedom. There are four figures with flak jackets, updated Kevlar helmets (one with night vision goggle mounts), personal gear and weapons. The weapons include M16s, M203 and M249. A total of 84 parts are included in the set.

I'm happy to see someone releasing contemporary figures and these from Trumpeter look very nice indeed.

My sincere thanks to Stevens International for this review sample!
