    My wife and Me do have photographic proof for all this. I take no happiness in having to reveal the sad past failures of FLEURBAIX Toy Soldiers. I have asked myself JUST HOW,,,, Did such a thing get to ever happen in the first place? Did pere gregg or Abram ever really have a know how of this Industry at all? or EVER really run a business successfully at all????

    Large Mould for 1/32 Scale Horses also filled solid with rock hard shiny plastic substance....totaly impossible to remove clean or separate....ruined Mould which affects viability for a alrge number of Mounted Rider figures.
    The Major
    A medieval Knight and Horse in 1/32 scale, Mould totaly filled with solid shiny plastic substance, possibly failed resin casting. Mould ruined beyond repair.
    The Major
    A Tree Mould filled solidly with a failedsticky white plastic type failed casting, impossible to separate or remove (half of a big sized moud ruined though might be bale to cast farm animals from it*

    Though i must say that the vast majority of the Mould toolings we recieved here, were generaly in good condition, there have been a number of nasty surprises which take some creative excuses and explanations (you know lying) to explain. Heres a few examples of the ultimate toy soldier maker "sadness" .....

    United States Army General Norman Shwartzkopf (Storming Norman). Gulf War. This is the Resin master for a larger scale item.

    Our Launch continues to gain momentum. Some setbacks over Machinery parts (someone stole them !!) have now been overcome this week, and casting from ten Inch Moulds has began. Seven Inch Moulds, including the NEW Ducal figures, re issued, will start around Mid October time.

    There are a LOT of DUCAL Cavalry Cavalcade riders which require fresh new toolings. Mr and Mrs kaputnik of N Z sold all the painted display stock heavily on E Bay shortly before "selling" the entire range "onwards" to us. The kaputniks weere supposed to give to us the customer list for the ducal but like the two of them, it just "dissappeared" into thin air.

    There remain a few un identified items, such as these WW1 bits and pieces shown here. The MOUNTFORD WW RHA Artillery gun team(the blue shirted gun crew) NEVER arried here, they appear to have been stolen outside the Maison kaputnik in N Z the "night before" shipping to us. (if you can seriously credit or believe that?!). I think they are from the Mountford RHA.....WW1

    UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT. Max and Maryse wish to distance ourselves from the previous and apparentl quite bad, image of the now defunct N Z Producers. Unlike Kaputnik N Z and co, our Roman Soldiers will not arrive coated in Grey Automobile primer.....It is true right now we focus upon producing unpainted castings, but our DISPLAY Models will be the fullMc Coy painted items.

    Meet the "Ancestors". Maryse and me found several charming, if somewhat "sobreing" Medieval Tomb Monument Images. The original "Rosedale" papers listing who this Noble Knight lord and his lady were have sadly succumbed to the previous careless owners. Does anyone out tere recognize who are the Nobles please? I THINK they are English.
