From the ashes of the recent 2014 Hong Kong protests comes this pair of Hong Kong Police Tactical Unit officers as well as a very nice and detailed Street View Set.
The Police Tactical Unit (Abbreviation: PTU; Chinese: 警察機動部隊) is a paramilitary riot control unit of the Hong Kong Police Force. The Police Tactical Unit provides an immediate manpower reserve for use in any emergency, Unit companies are attached to all land Regions and are available for internal security, crowd control, anti-crime operations, disaster response and riot control throughout Hong Kong. The Police Tactical Unit is often referred as the 'Blue Berets', which is in reference to the blue berets worn as part of the uniform.
This Unit is made up of eleven Companies, comprising in total about 2,000 officers. Each company (under the command of a Superintendent) is made up of 4 platoons, each led by an Inspector or Senior Inspector. A platoon comprises 32 Officers with 1 Station Sergeant (senior NCO) and 8 Sergeants.

This set is rather cool, especially with the 1/6 scale Street View Set. Not much details have been given except we know that all three (figures and diorama) are sold separately so you can choose which figure to buy or consider getting just the street view set with the metal looking barriers, Police tape and dustbin.
