New Eureka 28mm US MOD Grunts
« on: October 24, 2011, 03:25:33 PM »
I'm suprised no one's posted these yet (unless they did and I missed it) but here's some new Eureka 28mm US Moderns photos I received recently in an email from Eureka USA. They look pretty damned good.









Enjoy!

I agree they look great - I wonder how they size up, next to the Empress Modern Yanks.

Almost perfectly.

BTW there is a further figure not depicted in those photos. Aiming/firing pose.

Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Great figures. Very well documented. The firearms, tactical poses give an incredible true life feeling.

Nice sculpts.  Not on the site yet though.  Is it me or are there no images on the Eureka site.  Their NZ site works fine, the I cannot see a single image on the US site.

I am not a modern wargammer at all...but these sure are tempting me to become one!

Very nice...I'd love to see some painted examples!

Interesting miniatures !
I wonder what type of gun the 4th grunt on 1st picture is holding...
Is it some kind of xm rifle but where is the magazine? Maybe on the right side of gun?

M249 PIP Squad Automatic Weapon. The one in question is being fed from the belt trailing over the figure's right arm ( partially obscured in the photo).
