These are just great! Are they going to be produced or are they one-off?

Very cool. Got an interesting Soviet vibe going with them. Which is a nice change from everything being US Marines in space..)

I'd expect some kind of night vision gear on troops like that, since they're probably dropping in the dark.

Second nightvision request, plus a sniper and maybe the weapons off so you could add some of kev's pulse rifles or Andy's sci fi weapons.

They will be produced. I'm sure the manufacturer will let you all know shortly.

Dude, besides awesome, you are very prolific.  Outstanding stuff.  I would be broke if I bought everything you sculpted...

Stocky, but I like them. Might well get added to my Near Future forces - once the mystery manufacturer is revealed  ;)

These are right up my alley, especially with those soft helmets I seem to have an unexplainable thing for. One-piece kevlar suit and plenty of pockets? Heck, yes.

Those are lovely.  How would they compare to Copplestone?  My Neo-Soviets could use some para support...

And if you are going to make a few more of these, then a sniper, medic, and communications tech please. :)
