Helghan reinforcements

You may be aware that there has been a Kickstarter by 'That Evil One" to produce STL's for the 'Heckghosts".  having put such a lot of work into my existing Helghans, and still loving the aestetic. I duly stumped up the readies for these boys.
Actual Colonel Meal Radec model.  The rest of his squad wear the slightly odd shaped helmets indicating that they are higher value, more elite types.  In the game, Radec is armed with an SMG, so you can see the little divergences to ensure that no IP is enfringed.
So these guys with the odd helmets are on the Brick of Scrutiny, and the other guys are arrayed below
The illustrations for the KS looked pretty detailed.
Some of the details on the prints look pretty sharp; but in the grey resin, there's a chance that some of the features which look a little fuzzy are as advertised, they just don't show until I get some paint on them.
They are pretty kool and obviously in the idiom I'm looking for.
There could be a few more shooter poses, I may have to get a few more printed, but will see how these turn out before getting any more.
A few of the prints are one peice items, but most of them have separate legs.
Which does give rise to the 'bifurcated by a vaudeville magician' look.  But this is an easy fix with a bit of belt kit.
This guy appears to be armed with STA11 submachine gun with underslung GL.
And belt kit to hide the gap.
This guy has a STA52 Assault Rifle
Those without a long arm were given a slung Accatran pattern las-rifle.
But you're asking if they match the existing Helghans ?  Pretty well. 
They're not over sized
They are similarly dressed and equipped.
And similarly soldierly poses.

And the bullpup assault rifles match up pretty well.
