Nice relaxed arms on this one. Many figures have the elbows lifted far too high.

There are two prices on the Tin Berlin website...are there two scales, and if so, what is the other scale?

Is there a way to make the photos larger?

I wanted a full figure of this so I'm very glad Tin Berlin obliged.

I really like it...I think it represents one of the most modern SOF figures around to date.

Hi, 54 mm and 75mm This can be recognized by the article number.

That's a very well detailed figure, excellent.

 

[Ong]

Thanks for the reply and posting larger photos.

I do have a few questions...

• Why does it say 250mm sculpture? Will you offer this figure in 250mm scale?
• Is the Ukraine helmet flag patch molded on, or separate, meaning it's not a Ukrainian SOF figure, or is it?
• Will you be offering this figure in larger scale than 75mm (1/24)?
• Do you have a parts photo that you can post?

Yes I wondered the same thing! 250mm would be awesome.

Cheers,

And, if I may add to Ong's questions. The helmet has the battery fitted for the monocle NVG, is the NVG available, too? If this is going to be available in bigger scales, I'm keen for one in 1/9, no Ukrainian flag, with the NVG, please (sorry to be so demanding).

I'm thinking of this as a camo option...

The 250mm refers to the bust version I believe. I have it and it's very well done but I too wish the NVG were included, it really would set the bust/figure apart.

Hi Steve,

I suspected that (250mm in the title was the bust), and saw the comment re NVG, hence the question as you're absolutely right, and as Ong says, this is the most modern figure currently available, it stands to reason that the NVG would be there.

Not sure I like the legs posed that way...I've never known an Operator that's so relaxed...LOL.

I thought of that too until I realized that the Operator isn't ready for long distance combat in the U.S. SOF sense. He's not wearing kneepads and has no Camelbak. As such, while very modern, he's not in a pure and true "U.S. SOF long endurance long range combat configuration" as he is missing some gear.

Of course each Operator is different and he may be useful for a Direct Action Close Quarter Battle raid where water and kneeling isn't really required.

I highly suspect that this figure is Ukrainian, but what gets me the most is perhaps the scale. 1/24 scale (75mm) is still pretty small. The bust came with the option of a U.S. or Ukrainian flag and I'm wondering if the full figure provides that option as well.

Nonetheless, it is still an excellent figure for 1/24 (75mm) and 54mm (1/32) scale and one of the most detailed and modern around in those scales.

This figure was cast earlier, so the versions with flage came. Soon new modern figure with Ukrainian flage.

Great figure that I'd buy in large (1/9) scale, 75mm or less is too small (for me) to show off the great detail, like the duct tape on the right hand rail of the helmet. In 54mm, that would look more like a casting flaw. As for the flag, I'd remove it or cover it with an Old Glory decal. But that's just me.

I'll keep an eye out for the new, modern figure mentioned.
