Awesome.
My thoughts on the Devgru.
I'd really like to see that NEW Devgru AOR1 Navy Seal come with a Battle Belt in AOR1. We have had 4 releases of AOR1 Devgrus and none came with a Battle Belt in fact none from DAM Toys or E & S...so Soldier Story might want to add one to be the FIRST to hit the market with one. Regardless any New Devgru in AoR1 should be well received from Soldier Story since there past releases are extremely hard to come by and fetch extremely high prices on ebay.
So I applaud Soldier Story going back to a Devgru in AOR1...also it looks like its from a video game? anyone know the video game pictures?
My thoughts on the KSM, looks great, I can't complain since hes got a Battle Belt, looks well rounded, pistol mag pouches, hip draw pistol very cool, hopefully a backpack, helmet quad eye night vision goggles that light up, what more to ask for? Maybe a dump pouch, and a couple grenade pouches and you got a SOLID release. Gloves, Watch, Boots look great, Aesthetics look good. Can't complain.
The Snow Operator looks awesome. I am very excited to see the official release pictures, I passed on the previous Snow Operator, you can bet I'll be getting this guy. I love it.
More pictures please.

The Zytoys DEVGRU sniper set should have one that works. Between this one and Dam's upcoming release it should be a good year or so for those who missed out on the previous DAM/Soldier Story releases. Toss in a regular release for the arctic Seal and we have some good holes being filled.
Medal of Honor Warfighter. Lookup the Voodoo character. Call sign patch is a dead giveaway as well as Soldier Story previously hinting at the license. Gear in the game is well done as several guys from DEVGRU consulted on the game and got a thorough hiding for doing so.

Thanks Adam, I forgot all about ZY Toys, I might have to check that out. Mixing and matching stuff rarely works for me though, usually only works with Black colored gear. Regardless SS should come out with more robust complete well rounded kits on there figures, many of us have made many comments to include more variety of pouches, belts and other assorted gear over the years.
So Soldier Story I know your listening ....usually what Soldier Story does is release the pieces of gear several years down the line...product placement to sell other not so well received figures. I'll give you a prime example. So say I wanted a complete Multicam kitted figure. Vest, Belt, Pistol Pouch, Grenade Pouch, Radio Pouch, Backpack, Dump Pouch.
I'd buy the Famcon (Vest) then USAF PJ Set (Belt) mind you there are 3, then I'd have to buy the NSW Seal Aor2 Gunner to get a few more Multicam pouches then I'd have to buy NSW Snow Operator to get the (backpack) new SDU Multicam figure to get the (radio/dump pouch).
5 Whole figures to get 1 semi complete Multicam Kit for 1 guy.
One of the reasons why I believe DAM Toys has been successful, there figures are just more well rounded & complete. Soldier Story needs to look at what made there older figures a hit like US Army in Afghanistan Gunner, US Army 10th SF, USMC 1st Mob, Seal Team 10, 1st SFOD

We haved the gunner (at the right) last year, it's seems we will have a new one, the sniper guy in middle of the pic.

Some very intriguing stuff there, both military and emergency services. Even when covered by goggles, NODs, and the like, the sculpts look a bit familiar. Placeholders, or will we get repeat heads with the new figures? We will know when we know, but it looks like Soldier Story intends to get back to the front of the pack.
On a completely different note, the second pic: That fiberglass ladder looks like it's rated for 75 lbs. I know, who cares? I would, if I were on it.
