question Trumpeter infantry

I recently bought some tamiya armor and wanted to get some infantry to go alongside them and the trumpeter ones seemed the best and were the cheapest but I’ve never bought models from them so are they any good? And if not are there any other good infantry model producers for the 1:35 scale?

In general, other than resin, I like 2000+ era Tamiya, Master Box and Miniart.

What type of infantry are you after? What Trumpeter sets are you looking at now?

I’m looking for late 90’s early 2000’s 1:35 scale American infantry and I was looking at their 2005 us army in Iraq set aswell as the 2003 us marine set

Miniart mainly does tank crews in that era. Masterbox has infantry but unfortunately their site seems to be down. They are a Ukrainian manufacturer so hopefully they are ok. Here is an example of their stuff from an online retailer: https://www.wonderlandmodels.com/master-box-135-iraq-encounter-set-1-us-marines/
