I have an entire Orbital Assualt Battalion composed of either SF1003 or
SF1006 - can't remember which and I don't know the difference. Nice
figures, only one pose, about 7 or 8mm tall, cleanly sculpted & cast.
Individually cast, so you'll need to provide bases for your DS squads.

These guys are basically Infantry Walkers, in DS terms. That Orbital
Assault Batt I've got has two Companies worth of these. "Egghead" style
walkers, roughly ovoid bodies, no seperate heads, hunchbacked look.
Again,
nice clean sculpts, but only one pose per type.

All of them have a light gun of some sort as one arm; IIRC the Commander
has a more complex backpack unit with an antenna, while the Hvy Wpn has
a
sort of vertical tube sticking out of a larger 'backpack' - vertical
launch GMS/L, I decided they were.

I don't have closeups, but:

The 2nd pic has PA on either side of the four superheavy tanks at
centre,
and behind them at the rear edge of the middle woods are three of the
Infantry Walkers - one of them already burning...

Oh, and the flat bases with cast-on figures are SF1004 Heavy Weapons -
basically a GMS/L & two-man team all cast onto the same base.

Very nice figures, all of them.
