Yes indeedy...!
I also noticed here:

Set 4793 -- that buzz-saw like thing.... depending on scale...might it not
work well for scews on modern subs such as everyone was trying to find a
solution too not that long ago? Granted, they would /probably/ be a smidge
small.. and they .are. trans-orange it appears.. but the shape is right...
sometimes y'gotta cut corners.. (like the 3 bladed props really being to
small in diameter for most WWII aircraft..)
And am I wrong, but doesn't that same set /appear/ to have a new shade of
green? It could be the lighting for the picture but it looks like a dark
forest green, not the bright green of Slave I/Flash Speeder fame or the
'flat' green of LOM or the Statue of Liberty....or are my eyes playing
tricks on me again? :)
And I am SO looking forward to the new Alpha Team figs for extra
para-military style uniforms... mmmmm!
Anyway... just my random thoughts of the morning having just seen the new
sets. :)
I finally have my SEAL Team's insertion raft done up in all black so I'll be
posting some pic's of them in a day or so I hope.
