Yes!!!
DAM Toy is certainly responding to Art Figures latest Delta Force announcement.
And guess what... its not Hoot next, its Sanderson instead. WTF WHAT ABOUT HOOT?!!!
This version's BDUs are seamingly unsoiled and have slightly more gear.
Would've liked to have seen the headsculpt a little more.
Won't be a problem of having a short supply of gear next year for kitbashing more Deltas. I'd like to bash that many like in the group photo.
 Looks to me like a Sanderson showdown! Can't wait to see more.
If DAM ever starts on Hoot and I hope its real soon, and headsculpt is as realistic as the one pictured below.
(Thanks to members Corran & OSA who posted it earlier)

Re: DAM:DELTA FORCE TEAM LEADER-TASK FORCE RANGER-1993 SOMALIA comming soon
DAM definitely responds!!! Will be getting both this and Art Figures - looks like a lot of BHD bashes coming soon! Definate for me lol
Both the boots on this and Art figures looks great. Gonna have to save up as will be looking at a 6 or 8 man team on these, plus the Rangers! Gonna be expensive! Nice to have so much choice coming out though.

Love the boots! Can't wait to see a comparison of this to the Art figures and the real character!

Re: DAM:DELTA FORCE TEAM LEADER-TASK FORCE RANGER-1993 SOMALIA comming soon
This weapon looks more accurate. The Art Figures carbine looks to be an M4, with the telltale notched barrel, which was not yet available in 1993. This looks more like the Colt 723 that Delta operators used in Somalia, but can't really tell without more detailed pix.
Delta operators in Somalia being bashed or produced with M4s is a real pet peeve of mine... not really sure why.

You can see the slight notch in the pics above, it's obscured by the flashlight attachment.
Otherwise it come down the sculpt, and yeah those GSG9s are uber!!

Some Colt model 723 carbines were produced with the M4 profile barrel as well, at that point the two weapons are almost identical.

Re: DAM:DELTA FORCE TEAM LEADER-TASK FORCE RANGER-1993 SOMALIA comming soon
DAM toys has been taunting me since the first (BHD-esque) release. The MSRP is very reasonable and I hope this D-Boy is cheaper than Art Figure's one.

Yeah, I noticed the knee pads first thing when I see the picture. If DAM is gonna mimic the movie's BHD D-Boy, I hope they get the knee pads right.

Re: DAM:DELTA FORCE TEAM LEADER-TASK FORCE RANGER-1993 SOMALIA comming soon
These new BHD figures are amazing - I hope that DAM continues to make their figures with the excellent quality that we saw in their first release.
However, I don't think that Fichtner wore the regular knee pads in the movie. I've attached a picture of him in the film. It clearly looks like he is not wearing the standard knee pads - but rather some sort of "soft" knee pads? I still think that the knee pads on this new figure are inaccurate - perhaps too modern for 1993?
I'm not a knee-pad expert, but the ones on the prototype seem fairly modern, don't they? Maybe someone can shed some light on this.
