My first disappointment was discovering the were soft plastic. I made this purchase from a '1/72 Plastic Soldier Review' article. I guess Italeri switched to soft plastic since writing. The M1919 and 60mm mortar are well crafted - my only problem is the MG gunner is sitting to fire - the figure should be prone. I plan to cut this gunner away from the gun, use same as an AT or mortar gunner, and mount the M1919 to the prone gunner from my Eschi set - waste not, want not. On the other hand, the crouching figure with the well-crafted SCR-300 radio Walkie-talkie with make excellent FO and command teams. Another outstanding piece is the standing officer figure with M-1/2 carbine and binoculars.

This is a solid set. Each figure comes with two or three random spots of flash on their shoulders and hats.

The poses favor movement and not combat, but add another set in combat and this box gives you the utility to that. For example, there are guys running with a bazooka and another with ammo. You have 6 different poses of guys walking. Lastly you got radio men, guys calling people to them, guys telling the men to move on. Now the detail on this set is spot on as well. I highly recommend this if you read my comment and liked what I listed.
