Decool Modern War 304, 305, 306, 307

The last set in this theme by Decool (according to the catalog to date): Russian military figure:
  • 304 - Russian Engineer, 
  • 305 - Russian Support, 
  • 306 - Russian Recon and 
  • 307 - Russian Assault.


You may find my post about previous set 301, 302 and 303 here and 308, 309, 310 and 311 here.



Small piece of pamphlet showing instructions to assemble the minifigure and catalog of minifigures and vehicle in this theme.



Weapons and accessories for each minifigure:






Assembled minifigures: 


Oops, i forgot to take off the helmet/cap to show you the alternate face. uh uh.. only one guy has printed straps at the back of his head. This is very unusual of Decool.. they are normally not stingy with alternate faces or printing at the back of head.


Once you see it, you can't unsee it. How many of you are bothered with this? Printing on both front and rear torso isn't sharp.



.. but the colour stick well on their arm. hmm, weird.

 Picture of them wearing vest:


The only minifigure in this set that interest me. I don't mind getting extra just to get that piece of cloth. Oh, his weapon also is the biggest in this set. another plus point.


Weapons you can get from this set:



Okay, i must admit. I'm quite in a rush to publish all these post. This is the 4th post for today lol. I still have Lele's transparent Star Wars minifigure, KSZ General Grevious, Lele's Big Hero 6 and some other old minifigures set i haven't review. phew..

wait.. another Big Hero 6 figures.. lol =)

  1. I am really disappointed with the fuzzy prints I give this entire set a pass. These bootleg minifigs stole some very ambitious designs, bit off more than it can chew.

    The only one I bought (3 for now) is 306 for it's interesting sniper rifle which I've never seen anywhere else. The cloth hood is also pretty nice. I will use them on nicer camoflage minifigs in the future.

    Absolutely gutted with the printed quality.

    1. Hi @apodistagon did you get the other set 304, 305, 306 and 307?

      I don't know what is the exact term for it but the print on these Decool figure looks exactly what i get when i try to print coloured image from my lousy bubblejet printer on glossy paper. The toner does not stick on the paper correctly and it smudges when I touch it.

    2. I just bought 3 more boxes ... no.309 ... for the Brickarms shotguns. I think that's about all I'm going to buy from these two Modern War sets.

      From now on, I'll order from taobao for a dozen or two weapons/equipment instead buying them along with minifigs.

      "Modern War" minifigs are oso on taobao, sold without the Decool label ...
