a new 1/16 scale tamiya Modern US figure

Looks great...be something neat to do. Any idea on price? I bet its a lil pricey especially coming from TAM but I love em anyway
Thanks,
Chris

At long last, something other than WW2 German! Makes a nice change. Should be quite cheap, at least in comparison to resin figures. Lets hope their 'World Figure Series' actually becomes a world series, what other subjects would we like to see Tamiya produce? How about a modern British Infantry figure from Iraq? Or at least a WW2 US figure, maybe a ETO Airbourne figure (certainly more in keeping with the normal releases by most other companies).

I'd like to see a Us Marine in dress blues

I can not wait to get my hands on that baby!

I like the 4 set release of Tamiya 35133 1/35 U.S. Modern Infantry Set. And I really enjoy the Tamyia 3630x 1/16 German set release so this will be in the must buy list for me.

This would be in the same price range as the Tamyia 3630x 1/16 German set release one would think.

I am mostly an Auto (F1) Bike (MotoGP) modeler. However, I like how the Tamiya figure kits give me a quick change of pace and a quick challenge to keep my skills sharp. I like the price points, I can pick up a couple kits and not break the bank.

I hope to see more of the "Modern" line.

Jon,

Looks nice. I think any modern era figure would get some attention right now. I'd like to see an Army Aviator in full flight gear. AH-64 or 160th SOAR figure would be my priority.

Not sure how we get companies to hear our desires but if our feedback helps, lets pile on!

Cheers,

Wade

id like some Seals ,Delta,SAS or SBS troopers in afghanistan or Iraq gear

A dog handler would be nice, I can only name 2 kits both1/35, a Vietnam-era US and a WWII German. I bought the US one and want the German. Out of curiousity have carrier pidgeons been released with a figure in any scale? Can you tell I'm an animal person?
