I have been Summoned!
Lets see... Brand new For sure as there are still a number in the old Blotch Woodlands... Colors seem a bit on the bright side and not as muted as some. A bit busy I think they should Lower the Blacks and up the brown's and greens... Helmets Should have a night vision adapter standard but that's more off topic. Blouse looks too have shoulder pockets and Slanted chest ones. defiantly based on USMC digi's seems Pretty Fair. All and all functional although Improvable.

TerraN_EmpirE, Thank you. When I saw those diggys..I said wow! The AFRP broke those uniforms out for this operation more than likely. They want to look sharp for the USN/USMC team.

The Armed Forces of the Republic of the Philippines always look sharp in uniform. Always. They may be lacking in some areas but make up for in in shear determination and military bearing.
