OK guys, sorry for the wait on the pictures. I got home late last night. I snapped some quick pictures this morning of two of the new 1/18 FOV figures. I'll do a more detailed and better quality picture post tonight with the remainder of the figures.
Below is a picture of PFC. Curtis OBregon-USMC in package:
Here is a pciture of Private Paul Wincek-USMC with all his accessories:

These figures are awesome!!! Some of the best to date in my book.
Some points:
1. They are very close if not identical in articulation and construction to
bbi's figures.
2. The wrist ARE articulated.
3. Not to impressed with the backpacks.
Now you may ask, can you head swap?
Yes.
The head from the FOV figure I used had a slightly larger peg than the bbi figure but with a little force it fit fine and didn't do any damage to the FOV head's peg or the bbi body. The bbi figure's head was a little loose but nothing a little glue or filler wouldn't fix.
Here's a picture of swap between Private Paul Wincek_USMC and the bbi Navy Spec Ops figure:
I hope these get a very wide release and distribution because they are very well worth it. Your modern collection will be incomplete without them.
PICK THEM UP WHEN YOU SEE THEM!!!
I hope we see some WWII figures from FOV in this line and please please please some of the foreign soldiers we've been asking for as well. This has me very excited to see what FOV has in store next for this line.
LOCK AND LOAD, IT'S ARMY BUILDING TIME!!!!!
