SAFS Review

Posted the pictures up sometime back but didn't find the time to write up on this. Now I just post the pictures and let them do the talking ...
This is probably the kit that made SF3D take off and the suit's casting is crisp and sharp. This forms the basis for the many variants of mercenaries suits such as the popular Raccoon, Prowler and Raptor. Includes a pilot figure to stand beside the suit and 2 different heads.
