You may not want to buy it from ATF, but iy gives you an idea what you should be looking for.

Obviously, it's entirely your choice about what kit you buy, but it will be a long time (if ever) before there are enough people with US pacific and Japanese kit to actually put on a game.

I will re-enforce Steiner's air of caution. Any Pacific game would be a long way off (and in no way guaranteed to feature the Marines) and a Marine Corps loadout would be a pretty niche item that is best got if you just want it to dress up at open days or other such - and this is coming from the person with a Polish 1939 loadout!

If you have an interest in the Pacific then a US infantry impression is just as useful for that, and allows you to use it in ETO games, of which there are a fair few.

I'm not sure it will be long...The Pacific TV series may have an influence. Look at what SPR and BOB did to re-enacting?
Finding Japanese troops might be a constant problem?
