    FIGARTI: HMS Poor People

    The $6500 cost includes shipping and is the price delivered to your door, it is not $6500 plus additional cost of shipping. I think it would cost you a lot more than $1500 if you personally picked up one in Shanghai, then tried to get it back to CA.:D

    Reichsbahn Questions & Comments

    I noticed the railcars have details like the air brake cylinder and brake lines. The decks of the railcars are pretty strong since Figarti had two Panzer IV's on the deck of light flatcar wagon (ETG-037) and this car still easily rolled on the rails. Finally, Figarti did not introduce a medium...

    Figarti OTSN Chicago

    If you are asking about the Panzer Grey Flakvierling on the flat car, it was a repaint of the Winter Flakvierling done specially for the Chicago Show. The quad 20 mm anti-aircraft guns in the flatbed wagon will be available before Christmas.:)

    Figarti Train and Marklin Gauge 1 Compatibility

    How Many Are Planning to Purchase the Karl Morser

    As I have mentioned, this is the first time at the Chicago Show that I heard collectors say that a Figarti product was inexpensive. Normally, I hear comments that the vehicles are nice, but too expensive. I believe the Karl at $399 will be "sold out" very quickly. I ordered both. :)

    Rick's Comments at the 2010 Lunch with Figarti

    Both are limited to standard 100 sets. Both of these sets were available at Chicago but I think the bulk is still being shipped. Rick said before Christmas but I was not sure if he was talking about the Karl and BR 52 or the train related figures shown.:o

    All the collectors at the Chicago Show thought the $399 was amazing and I expect this set to sell out very quicky. For the first time, a Figarti product was not considered expensive.:D
