Operators WAAPA003

The Wargames Atlantic Operators kit is excellent for being nothing specific. If you are looking for generic military-ish guys in a modern setting that is parts compatible with other Wargames Atlantic plastic kits then this is the perfect kit. If you want something to be specifically US Marines or Russian VDV or UN Peacekeepers then this is close, but not really 100%. It might be close enough for your tastes, but part of being generic makes this kit not very specific. It may actually work best as a SWAT team and armed civilians kit.

Mine have been painted as modern U.S. Marines and they look the part, but have some wrong details. My biggest gripe is the M249 SAW left arm is holding the SAW in a very unrealistic way. I used a different arm to solve this. Additionally the SAW has the ammo belt feeding from both sides of the gun at once! Clearly this was sculpted by someone who has zero experience with actual belt fed machineguns. Only 3 out of the 5 bodies are wearing body armor. The other two are just wearing chest rigs. This really sucks for doing them as a proper military force since body armor is very standard in almost all modern militaries. This kit plus the Wargames Atlantic Agents and Civilians/Survivors kits would work very well together for making a skirmish scale game of SWAT and police detectives vs bank robbers or gang members by combining various parts from each kit. So go buy one of each from Sprue Dude and see how that goes!

Overall it is a very nice kit for a lot of applications if you aren’t too picky. If you are a looking for something specific this probably won’t work perfectly, but it gets you a nice 90% solution for a lot of things.

I also tried kitbashing Afghan insurgents by using the AK, PKM and SVD arms onto the Wargames Atlantic Afghan Warriors bodies and it worked ok, but required a lot of gap filling. Good enough for a small team for a skirmish game, but not ideal for platoon or larger scale games.

Really nice packaging, came pretty quickly and always impressed with the care of the sprue when I order from the Spruedude

Sprue is packed with options, allowing you to build Spec Ops forces, regulars, or even more specialized operatives.

Good kit

Would have preferred a bit more hand to hand options, but a great kit.

Order was prompt,seller did a great job of protecting the surfaces and spaces between the sprues. He has a fantastic collection of sprues across any genere of minis. I will definitely shop here again.

So, I needed 3 to 5 operators to make a team for Majestic 13. This and a sprue I already had filled the bill and then some. Two thumbs up.

Shipped fast they look very realistic 👌 but the guns are fragile easy to bend

Happy to get a nice squad together without drowning in unneeded sprues!

Thank you again! Excellent Seller!

I don't often by things by the sprue, but in this case, I needed a specific number of modern operators for a game so this was the way to go. I'm happy with my order and the sprues arrived in perfect condition

Everything arrived quickly and in perfect condition. Being able to purchase a single sprue is very helpful to me.

Great models. Looking forward tonusimf rhem on the tabletop.

Speedy service.

Just what I was looking I need for.

Excited to work on these. They look great! Super convenient to get one sprue of each WGA pulp adventure product.

A flexible and easy set of "tacticool" guys - a style of miniature that is hard to come by and usually rather expensive. Did some kitbashing an its easy enough to make believable female operators as well. All in all a great kit with a variety of cool modern weapons even if you are just looking for bits to bash.

The Operators sprue is nice. Good amount of options. Small pet peeve, I dislike when the heads are indented and sit on a "neck", limits kitbssh options. But the sprue is still very nice.

Amazing potential in these sprues! Perfect for any modern to post modern gameplay.
