I have seen a lot of people asking where to buy mannequins. Fortunately for us, the GWOT collectors, we don't have a problem with mannequin sizes that World War I or II collectors faced with. Modern uniforms can fit "taller than average" modern mannequins. However, unfortunately, we encounter two typical problems with mannequins:
-Feminine faces
-Modeling poses
One issue with ALL mannequins are for some reason, they have feminine eyelashes. Personally I trimmed them very short or simply take them off.
So here, I will share some links to ebay sellers that have very good mannequin with good manly and militarily poses and faces. You will see some is insanely priced but I have watched the prices change. Sometimes being listed for between $100-150 then price changed to over $1,000 with best offer option, eventually, price will go back to normal.
First series are from the seller, mannequinmaven. There are three good poses, all with identical head scuplt. Better yet... those have BEARD! Perfect for OEF SF displays. Also surprising, it works well as middle eastern soldier as shown by Connor (cybercarnage). I took a liberty of borrowing a couple of photos from his original thread: Iraqi Displays
