This is a near-perfect set of 1 72 figures. Caesar without a doubt has one of the best series of modern miniatures out there. The set was released in 2008, I think, and the equipment the US military uses hasn't changed that much since then. The poses are nicely chosen, reflecting modern combat tactics (for instance, many of the figures are crouching down, as if in urban combat). There is not too much pose diversity, however, only 12 poses. The Navy SEAL is a really nice touch; these figures are supposed to be elite as opposed to just Army figures, but there's not too much to distinguish themselves from regular army soldiers. The SEAL is a really nice touch. He's holding what looks like an FN SCAR, only used by special forces. This just proves the quality and accuracy of the figures. There is NO flash. The figures are very clean, well cut, you can make out the features on their faces. This is just a really all-around nice modern US military miniatures set, and Caesar has others out there (British army, Israeli defense force, Urban resisters) to complement it.

Great set. The level of detail on these figures is excellent. There is a fair bit of individual variation among the different poses in terms of detail items such as pouches and kneepads as you would expect in real life. Each pose is a fair representation of soldiers in action. No one standing on parade here. Each is life like and not forced or two dimensional as is the case with some sets. If there is a fault to be found it is in the way it was packaged. As with most Caesar products these came as loose figures and not on a sprue. While this is a time saver, unfortunately some of the more delicate elements can become bent ie the Stinger launcher and gun barrels. Highly recommend. I found this set paired well with Caesar Set 30 Modern US army with Desert equipment.
