   Glad to help Recon1...Smile

   As mention too, the uniforms can be corrected slightly if you dont want to paint the camo depicted. It doesn't seem to be a lot of difference. I dug up another kit review which will give you some help if you want to go with these figures and modify the uniforms......check the following link...

  Hope this is more help for you...

Hey Recon, just giving you the heads up that if you use those guys, you'll want to paint their uniform that sort of HBT grey green color.  Or, like you said, doctor them up to fit what you'd like.

   Dragon did a kit with US 2nd Armoured Infantry which had 4 soldiers in a walking pose. I am not sure if it still available.. 

  Justin...

    I did mention in my previous post about Dragons 2nd Armoured Infantry. Ithink this kit would get you off to a good head start if you can still purchase it.... Have a look at the kit review which i found for you in the following link......

Tamiya has a few figures in their old US infantry sets. They are decent.

The top left three here

and the upper right figure from this set, slightly different from #3 above

How many figures are you looking for?

Almost Deafpanzer, but they are in a fighting position. What I need is a marching column. Thanks much. Don

Will this work... three figures are walking in winter outfits even tho.  Like the other guy said, Tamiya has lots of soldiers in walking mode.  You can always replace their heads with Hornet or Verlinden heads easily.

   Yeah, Tamiya had some in their early infantry kits. The figures are typical of early Tamiya quality though.

   Dragon did a kit with US 2nd Armoured Infantry which had 4 soldiers in a walking pose. I am not sure if it still available.

   Also try companys like Warrior, Verlinden or Legend. There are many more. You just have to keep searching and you are sure to find something that will suit your needs.
