All 16 infantry models come with 12 face skins, 13 BDU jacket bodygroups for rolled sleeves (and fitting with the webbing/PASGT vest), a bodygrouped PASGT vest, bodygrouped gloves (with and without rolled cuffs), bodygrouped PASGT helmet (with/without scrim band), patrol cap, USMC 8 point cap, boonie, SWD goggles on either face or helmet, glasses, and two boot variants per model, depending on the color/camouflage pattern. Some headgear items are not present on the balaclava variants.

Each part of the infantry models, such as the PASGT vest & helmet, jacket, pants, t-shirt, balaclava, and boots, can be removed and replaced with the standalone bonemergeable models to create whichever combinations of camouflages and colors you could possibly desire.

The eight camouflage patterns/colors are, US Woodland (BDU), US Six Color Desert (DBDU), US Three Color Desert (DCU), US Experimental T-Pattern, Olive, Tan, Black, Navy Blue.

The bonemergeable ALICE webbing sets feature almost every component of the ALICE loadbearing system that has ever been issued. Bodygroup options include: 30rd M16 mag pouches (both with and without M67 hand grenade pockets), M249 SAW ammo box pouches, Field dressing/compass pouches in multiple locations, First aid kits in two locations, M9 and M1911 pistol holsters, M7 and M9 bayonets, Flashlights and smoke grenades on the suspender shoulders, Canteens, buttpacks, an ALICE rucksack, and more. The "PASGT" webbing set is set up to fit over the PASGT vest, while the standard set will fit over BDUs. Each webbing set comes in three skins, olive, tan, and black.

The ALICE webbing system is also fully rigged so that pouches can be moved and adjusted to avoid clipping.

The PRC-77 radio packs include two antennas (folded and straight), an antenna bag, two handset positions (on the webbing straps, and on the radio), and a straight, posable handset cord. As an alternative option, a standalone radio handset is included with the bones the other way around, so that the 'root' of the cable is the handset, rather than the 'root' being on the radio. Like the webbing, the radios are set up with a "PASGT" version to fit the PASGT vest and a standard version to fit the BDU models. Also like the webbing, the radios come in olive, tan, and black.

Other accessories include standalone glasses, goggles, hats, PASGT helmet, PASGT vest, each with the 8 camouflages/colors as skins. These items can all be bonemerged with the infantry models. Similarly, the BDU jacket, pants, t-shirt, balaclava and boots are included as bonemergeable accessories for use as mentioned above, all with 8 skins and the bodygroups seen on the regular infantry models. A bodygrouped set of US military helmet ranks are included, which can be bonemerged to the PASGT helmet. These include olive and tan skins. The standalone goggles feature clear, tinted, green (laser protective), and fully opaque lens skins, along with bodygroups to fit the goggles around the balaclava and onto the helmet. The tinted lens can sometimes cause transparency issues, which is why a fully opaque skin is included.

In addition, the entrenching tool, bayonets, and flashlight from the ALICE webbing are included as separate props, each with skins and bodygroups.



There are plans to add further things to these models, which will be released as expansion packs when they're done. Most of the planned further content was intended to be included in this original release, but for reasons I won't go into, these models were meant to be done about 4 years ago, and rather than delay them further by working on more content, we just wanted to get the baseline infantry models finished released for now and add further content when it's done.

Before asking "BUT WHERE'S THE ____???", please read through this list of currently planned content that we hope to add in future:

- M17, M40, MCU-2/P gas masks & carriers, NBC hoods, MOPP suits, gloves & overboots.
- Ranger Body Armor
- LBVs
- SWAT Vest
- Cover-less PASGT Helmets
- M1 Helmets
- M1965 Field Jackets
- M203 Grenadier vests
- Berets
- MP Brassards & Belt kits

The focus of these models is the 1980s/1990s, so all of the planned items will be from within that timeframe.

I have previously shown some US armored vehicle crewmen models that were built off an older version of these models. Those, along with a few other things, will be released when I've had the time to update those models to the same standard as these.

I would list the credits for all of the various parts of the models, but they come from so many different games and sources that it would be a very long list, and to be honest, I legitimately do not remember where half of this stuff came from.
