New sets spotted!

Woo, new sculpted pieces! I've already got the Night Ops Blackout squad, and the GPNVG heads look fantastic. Seems like there's also going to be new modular gun pieces - a SCAR-style front end and a dual-drum magazine! - but along with the very cool flamethrower, there's also WWII heads with camo netting and an M1908 sniper rifle.

...and I was going to make a joke about the blue camo uniforms, but then I remembered the US Navy did, indeed, wear blue digital camo for a few years. (They now wear MARPAT.) So that's actually a good thing.

That's very perceptive, ColBosch! Our design team aims for realism when making new sets/figures ;)

That attention to detail is a big part of what keeps me coming back.

Agreed, I drove M1123/51s for years and I couldn't pass up getting the HMMWV set you guys released. It's true enough to the source material with such a great attention to detail for the parts that count. I couldn't believe the designer put in a driveshaft, it was a total surprise and put a huge grin on my face. It also set me off on a Halo binge, keep up the great work and intricate sets!

Right? I've got two of them - one built strictly by the instructions, with the pseudo-TOW launcher, and a second that I slightly modified with a machine gun - and they look so much like the old Humvees I got used to. The "Desert Tank" kit is similarly well-detailed, looking just like a modern Cavalry Bradley, right down to the FBCB2 screen.HattedSandwich wrote:Agreed, I drove M1123/51s for years and I couldn't pass up getting the HMMWV set you guys released.

Finally found a Palmer in the wild. Last one at forth Walmart I've checked.

Chewy Bricks just released a video showing the Urban Copter set. It is based off of a Eurocopter EC-135 like I guessed, and includes a Capt. Merrick figure, a pilot fig and a masked soldier with a helmet. What is also interesting about this set is there seems to be a few new molds for weapons; a drum magazine and a new scar-type rifle with what appears to be an underslung grenade launcher.

That's true! I have seen it and I'm absolutely satisfied with the set image, all the waiting I got had its good results...Wlifter wrote: ↑Tue Apr 11, 2017 3:07 amChewy Bricks just released a video showing the Urban Copter set.

By the way I think MC is going to change some things about the set, some colours... Some pieces... Because the helicopter looks great, but needs good new dedicated pieces, maybe on the back of the chopper, and also new doors on the sides, because it looks all opened and empty... Finally I want to say the colour of the entire helicopter may change... You know we have not any sand helicopter but in the original CoD ghosts game those choppers are like dark green or dark gray.
