Saw the Sniper Team on FlyingGorilla.blogspot back in October '15 - Good Looking models and that EOD team is really cool.

I'm not sure if the sculptor has ever seen someone fire a Barrett .50 cal before, or just decided to pose them like they were firing any other rifle...

Hmn, what computer's that supposed to be? Not a Latitude Rugged, but then again its so oversized its more like a mini tower with a LCD strapped on. :D

Bitching aside, s'alright to see more moderns. It'd be interesting to see one of those EOD guys with a rifle (impractical as that is).

This from the sculptors blog may well explain the snipers pose: http://flyinggorilla.blogspot.co.uk

The 'computer' is the control station for the robot- in this case a very accurately sculpted model of the Talon EOD bot. They are hefty items and come in a large blast proofed case. It looks like the control station is resting on a separate wooden packing case.

The sniper comes with a wall. As for the EOD kit, it looks pretty much on target to me.
