Figarti's stuff at the West Coaster (1 Viewer)

[Steven Chong]

Picture of Figarti's Pegasus Bridge, this is the third prototype and the version that will be produced. Cost will be between $400 to $500. The bridge is on a diorama base created for me. Figarti will be making end pieces for the bridge to rest on. On the left is a display of their Tiger tanks.



Figarti's new SAS jeep showing the work of their new sculptor. The faces have more expression and the poses are more animated.



This figure is from a new line of "Mounted Warriors" which displays the work of the new sculptor.



The new 105 mm with firebase diorama base.



One of the new British Pegasus bridge sets.

Unfortunately, none of these pictures shows the new paint technique that Figarti introduced on the special figures handed out at the Lunch with Figarti. It's a lot better. Hopefully, Carlos took some pictures of his figure.

At the Lunch with Figarti, Figarti introduced two versions of the LVT. Each will be limited to 100.



Figarti also introduced the prototype of its new Viet Nam patrol boat with four figures. Base will be more realistic.

The patrol boat, this is what I like about Figarti just a bit on the never been done stuff.
How are the new figures, must be honest, the latest WW2 Marines weren,t very good.

Wow, some really cool stuff Steven!!

You really have to hand it to Figarti! They certainly took a big chance with

the Bridge, which I think will be a hit.

The same with the Vietnam Patrol Boat, a lot of people have requested Subs

and various other Naval items, I am allready making room for a couple of

those Patrol Boats alongside my Firebase.

What a terrific idea!

Any idea on the time frame of the release of these great pieces?

It would also help to let myself, a dealer of Figarti, know what is coming and when. Their distribution system leaves a lot to be desired. Seems like I am always the last one to know what they are coming out with next, unreal.

George,
My understanding is that none of the dealers, including Matt, knew about the new pieces until they were introduced at the Lunch with Figarti. At the lunch, Rick Wang also announced that they will be doing a monthly e-mail to dealers and another e-mail to collectors.

 

[Steven Chong]

The figures on the patrol boat do not have the new paint technique.

I guess Figarti didn't want it to leak out like it did at OTSN in Chicago.
