The shirt, necklace, MP7 and Glock configurations, FAST helmet, shoes, radio set, along with breaching tools... all look to be referenced from the widely distributed pictures of the dead French commando from the failed Bulo Marer rescue attempt in Somalia about a year ago.
Not posting pics here for obvious reasons, but I'm sure anyone here would know where to find them.
Looks like SS took major inspiration from those pics, and slapped on Djimon Hounsou's face from Forces Spéciales.
Great likeness to actor Djimon Hounsou from the Movie "Special Forces" or Original "Forces spéciales" with Diane Kruger. Very Intersting Figure and something different from all the US Figures.
There are some very nice pieces in here. The paint aps on the MP7 are excellent, and the detail on the Glock is insane! This may well be the finest Glock made to date, potentially even surpassing that made by PH.
A very welcome model. I would have liked to see a desert camouflage shirt, maybe now that the cloth has been printed we'll see something else in future.
Sold! Glad to see soldier story really pushing the envelope this time around and branching into new territory. I hope this helps to continue the trend of other foreign figures.
I've been excited about this figure since we got glimpses of it at the China Expo. At this point, I figure I'll just sit back and wait to see if it hits the dealers any time in the next year or so.
Nice looking figure. The cloth on the trousers looks to be far superior to the ACE one that was released earlier this year. Very nice figure, and yes, I googled above referenced image, and I'd agree as to the content being copied. Sad image to have seen though
Some nice details and will wait to see on price. I like the weathered look to trousers, and the boots are phenomenol
