Hi guys! With the recent hype [er..at least from where I am from, with a bunch of computer / video game geeks swarming]
I have plans to build some Titans based on some of the Gundam 1/44 kits but what troubles me are some of the ground troops / infantry men. They seem to be very specialised with distinctive wargears and equipment for them to jump around, doing all these parkour things some of us old folks have difficulty understanding.. Then their Titans (mechs, walkers) also have this Vortex shield which enable to absorb bullets and repell them back to the shooters ala Matrix / District 9 Prawnmech style
. Anyway the infantry have helmets with a some sort "X" as senors / visors..I cant find them yet but the folks at Hasslefree have some nifty ones : Like Ken link Hassle: link White ops team: link Any of you pros have any recommendations ?
Thanks in advance ! |

From what I've heard from my sons in law, you may want to find inexpensive figures for the ground troops,as they seem to die easily. |

Mercs? Kemvar and FCC? TAG Delta, Rangers, and Spetznaz Pig Iron Near Future line? That will at least give you guys with kneepads and lots of pouches. |

Problem is I got lots of 1/144 Gundam lying around..not that its scale matters but from the looks and height it matches better with 28mmm.. Lets see what goes
