![]() ![]() Some Afghan military leaders cling to hope that the country’s lone tank unit, 3rd Kandak (battalion), 2nd Brigade of the 111th Capital Division, will one day be re-equipped with new armor. ![]() Maintainers can barely keep the beasts running, and those they can’t are being cannibalized for parts or sold off as scrap. The brief footage is a rare glimpse at one of more than a dozen decrepit Afghan tanks still deployed to the besieged provinces of Helmand, Kunduz, Kapisa and Baghlan many more of the country’s remaining Soviet-made T-55s and T-62s are gradually succumbing to the ravages of time. and British base in the deadly Sangin district of the Taliban-dominated province, where nearly 1,000 coalition troops have been killed since 2001. The advisers spent more than two weeks on Camp Nolay, a former U.S. Marines plugged their ears as the muzzle blast from an Afghan T-55 tank firing toward enemy positions ripped through a gap in Hesco barriers at an embattled base in Helmand province, the same violent area where an American Green Beret was killed earlier this week.Ī video clip of the 60-year-old tank firing its 100 mm main gun, released Tuesday, was shot earlier this month as Task Force Southwest Marines were advising Afghan commanders on maintaining equipment and sustaining personnel “deployed to the frontlines,” the military said. ![]()

![]() Corrugated plastic cut outs set-up quickly with a stand that can be removed and re-attached. Cardboard cut outs and foam core cut outs set up quickly with a permanently attached stand. Your life-sized cutout will not fade in the sun and will look great for many years.Ĭardboard Cutout Standees include a sturdy stand with all life-size cutouts. This material is similar in construction to cardboard but is impervious to the elements and more durable than regular cardboard.Īll of the materials are printed with UV-resistant, waterproof inks on commercial quality inkjet printers. If you need your life-size cutout to survive the elements, or you want to reuse it for multiple events, we recommend corrugated plastic. ![]() This is a very flat material and provides the sharpest image quality for your life-sized cutout.
![]() ![]() NECA is proud to reveal two new figures of Isaac Clarke based on his appearance in Dead Space.īoth the standard Isaac with the plasma cutter and the bloody variant with the ripper come with a light up LED mask and back and over 20 points of articulation. Sounds like the makings of some serious trouble, but fortunately ol' Isaac's got a pressurized suit that along with keeping him alive, goes great with his plasma cutter, flamethrower and ripper. Seems simple enough - another day, another dollar - until the whole thing gets shot to hell and you end up having to fight for your live against zombified Necromorphs while simultaneously uncovering a conspiracy involving the Church of Unitology and wondering just where your girlfriend, Nicole Brennan, who was assigned as a medical specialist to the Ishimura could have got off to. The boxing is the same compared to the other figures.In Dead Space, it's the 26th Century and you're Isaac Clarke, an engineer sent to repair the interplanetary mining ship USG Ishimura, near the planet Aegis VII. On the front, there is a piece of tape holding the paper description together or a least a part of it so it doesn't flop or curl do to humidity. ![]() The detail on the front does look like a cut out from the front page of the GAME INFORMER when Dead Space first premiered on the magazine. The box has a description of Isaac and with other insignia of ComicCon 2009 est. Either you collect or just want to play, this is an overall great figure. I love the detail on the writing and over all how the piece looks together. I keep (along with my others) in the box for collection. To see the full brightness I would see the youtube reviews on this figure. The figure almost fully movable with a light up helmet (eye piece) and back (health bar) which is fairly bright. which you see here, on the engineering suit. Most victims would sketch out this alien language. Any of the followers of Unitology that witnessed or was near the Marker was effected and prone to go mad. His suit is also not unique to him, it was worn by miners and/or engineers. The Exclusive Unitology Suit was not worn by Isaac Clarke mainly. I have most of the Dead Space collection. I have collected over the years a series of figures. Overall, I love the design of the figure and the work put into the detail. ![]() |
