I've started working on the infantry for my All Quiet Human army and I must say I'm very impressed with the quality. The casting is clean and crisp with very little flash or mold lines. Clean-up is quick and easy. The poses are dynamic without being outlandish. And the detail is really good, from the gas masks to the wonderfully bulky Model 1910 haversack with the 'long pack'. These would do just fine for American Infantry in the Great War. The only detail that isn't perfect (for WWI) is the absences of the iconic leg rolls. The figures are wearing boots, instead. Perhaps they stand up better to the noxious Martian gasses?

Did not the immortal Trace Adkins describe the American way as to put a boot up the keester of our enemies? He didn't sing we're going to put a shoe and leggings up there. Besides once you stand in a puddle of Martian guts, you will want hip waders. I'm just guessing. But I'm going to paint some green gooey stuff onto the toes of some of my infantry's boots. Thanks for the great idea.
