About this creation
Need an fortified airstripe captured, or a city block quickly cleared out? Then the Rangers will get the job done. They're the "best of the best" when it comes to infantry roles. They basically do what the infantry do, just better.
Shown here are six members of the US Army's 75th Ranger Regiment. From left to right: Automatic Rifleman, US Army Combat Robotics Technician(embedded with the Ranger squad), Rifleman/Grenadier, Rifleman/Team Leader, Rifleman, and Designated Marksman.
Another picture.
Front view of 1st Lt. Paul Foley, showing pouches on vest, M4A1(with Aimpoint Red Dot scope, AN/PEQ2, verticla foregrip), details, etc. Sorry about the weird shine near the gun's scope, I was in a hurry to get the pics taken, as I was on my covered porch with rain barely hitting me.
Back view, showing his hydration carrier, M67 frag, and flashbang.
Front view of Cpl. Ryan Handler. He controls the combat robot on the right. He was embedded in a Ranger unit as a sort of 'experiment' to see how the idea would perform; while adopting the style of the helmet and vest, he decieded to keep on his ACU blouse and desert tan boots. His weapons is an M4A1 with an Aimpoint Red Dot scope, AN/PEQ2 IR Laser unit, and vertical foregrip.
Just a back view, not much but the hydration carrier.
Front view of SPC Mike Sprint, showing his M4A1(with a EO Tech holosight and AN/PEQ2). Nightvision system on his ACH/MICH 2000 helmet, black velcro patches on it, and a brownish 'cateyes' band.
Back view, showing his radio, hydration carrier, M1911 pistol, M67 frag, and the two 'light up' panels(the light green squares) on his 'cateyes' band.
Front view of Staff Sgt. Eric McCoy showing his SR-25 sniper weapon system, details, etc.
Back view showing M67 frag, hydration carrier, laser designator, etc.
Front view of Cpl. Jeremy Howell, showing his Mk 48 Mod 1(which sports a EO Tech holosight, a foregrip, bipod, and custom 200 rd box mag), two box mag pouches, nightvision, ESS goggles, etc.
Back view, showing three-day assault pack and M67 frag.
Front view of Sgt. James Ferrier, showing his M4A1(which has a PVS-14, EO-Tech holosight, AN/PEQ-15, and M203 grenade launcher) and other front details.
Back view, M67 frag(not sure why he has it though, since he has an M203), flashbang, hydration carrier, pouch, etc.
One last pic for good measure.
________________________________________________________________________________
-I entered this in a military contest on flickr. Wish me luck!
-Story/series about them is soon to come.
-I gave them names, as I will be making more military figs in the future.
-Hope you liked them and feel free to leave comments and suggestions.
-Please don't ask how I made something if it was already asked and answered, I've been asked about the ACU about 5 times now and it's quite annoying.

What ever happened to the legos you were going to make me? thanks
Unfortunately, that's going to have to be put on hold. I currently don't have the proper funds/income to be buying LEGO pieces or the necessary material for custom minifigs. I may be able to make one Ranger minifig for you in the near future, but I'll have to get back to you on that. |

hey, its me again. i was wondering if I can get these from you can you make me a HMMWV just like the one in call of duty: modern warfare 2. I would want a gunner hole and gun, the tire on the back, a space to maybe put a lego ranger in the driver's seat and gunner seat. And the white logo on the side of the vehicle. thank you! BTW if you need to contact me my email is Ronnibellino@gmail.com (don't worry, it's my mom's)
I might be able to do that. I still have to design and build a Humvee and get more minifig parts to make some more Rangers. When I do accomplish those things I'll let you know, and see if we can work something out. Thanks for your inquiry. |

hey, I love your creations, you're very talented. Is there a way I can buy a set like this from you. I'm a big fan of the Rangers ( they're my favorite ) but I was worried they would fall apart while shipping. I would love to put them on display with a HUMMWV in the background. thank you, happy new year! |

Can you remove the accessories Ore they Are Glued There, And if yes, Does It Scraps The Paint ? Because I'm making custom weapons And I have This Problem, When I remove My Bipod On My Sniper I need To Make Another Paint Job, =(
Monopods, bipods, and grenade launchers are all removable. I paint the weapons once all of the attachments are on, so when I take off an attachment there's no paint to scratch, but I would have to paint the area where the accessory attached to match the rest of the gun. |

Hey do you know how to make guns like Brickarms? Also how did you get those scopes?
BrickArms weapons are made from CNC milled molds. But I don't know anything else about the process. The EO Tech holosights are custom made while the Aimpoint scope and SR-25 scope are modded BrickArms scopes. |

Wow....they look just like the real thing...or as close as you can get. I live about forty miles from the Rangers' home base in Fort Bennings. In fact, I've been there multiple times.
As an idea for the story, how about Operation: Phantom Fury that took place in Iraq? It was situated in Fallujah, and I believe that the Rangers took part in this operation. |

How did you do this? I'd like to try and replicate this if possible. Also, have you tried to market this to LEGO? It's kinda corny, but the first thing I thought when I saw the pic (sent to me via email) was, "Where can I buy these?" I did it with a lot of patience and a high tolerance level. No, I haven't tried to market them anywhere, I'd probably just sell them on my own over Ebay or something similar, due to the fact that The LEGO Group would never market these guys, as they are too regional (being that they're U.S. Rangers), they use many non-TLG parts, and it's probably against their rules or something to market military stuff, as that "would promote violence". Thanks though. I'm not sure if I'm going to make and sell any military figs as each one takes atleast five hours to create and I'm not sure if I could let go of them; I'll think about it, though. Thanks for your interest! I'm glad you like them.
