I am happy to wait until someone posts some shots here. Leaves me scratching my head as to why you raised the subject here though.

Just post a couple of comparison photos and let the punters make up their own minds , not sure where all the talk of spin and drama comes into play .

And a partridge in a pear tree .

The next world cup could be any ones ,such is the joy of knockout tournaments . The average age of the current AB,s is about 26/27 I believe so not exactly heading out to pasture. The thing that has surprised me this year is they have been able to chop and change the team and keep playing to a...

You seem fairly hung up on this whole speculator/investment issue , I will just leave you to run with that . I just enjoy what I can get and don't sweat what I miss out on or other people choose to do with their time and money. If you cant see how producing more of a figure that was a ltd...

You will never stop the odd person speculating ,All you can do is not buy from them . The only way a manufacturer could prevent it , is to overproduce all their products [and go bust in the process]. Even though FL reproduced the Imperial romans it has not prevented this from happening for...

I have to go against the flow on this thread ,they where sold as an ' Extremely Limited Edition - 500' and as such should stay that way . I missed out on that figure also, but such is life you cant have it all. As for the talk about people buying multiples for profit , this just doesn't stack up...

I picked up this guy , just amazing detail in person . Some real artists at work in this hobby .

Yachting itself is fantastic but To be honest I think this event is close to jumping the shark , bored billionaires [and NZ] in a game of one up manship and rule bending . If Don king gets involved the circle will be complete :smile2:. You probably need a better team of lawyers than sailors .

Have a good one Jeff , another year bites the dust. All the best Rob

Amazing looking piece , I'd love to see some more photos if you ever get a chance .

Great stuff Josh , he looks even better surounded by a few of his fellow Lancers. Cheers Rob

Hi Guys That was my auction , from memory I paid about $220 for that figure [ I was slow to pull the trigger so ended up buying it from the UK ] . I am rapt he has gone to a good home , I will probably give myself an upper cut one day for selling him . But with FL coming out with so many great...

Thanks for the link Marc , with so many New Zealanders serving in RAF [ or RNZAF squadrons ] its a nice link to have two Brit pilots in a RNZAF designated squadron. As our prime minister said at the outbreak of WW2 "With gratitude for the past and confidence in the future we range ourselves...

The ETA 50 is a bit of a must have for me , super looking plane and a bit of a kiwi connection Is nice to see also.Will be my first WW2 purchase in quite some time..

It will be interesting to see if the exit of Deans brings back another kiwi to their Playing ranks .Could make for an interesting bledsoe.

Toddy , they won't allow New Zealanders who play their Rugby outside of NZ to play for the AB,s so it would take a major slump in playing fortunes to see that rule change or a coach from outside of NZ take the reigns. But as you say who knows what will happen down the line.

I picked up these two guys , I don't have many Russian figures but the painting always blows me away. [the poor photos are another story]

Happy Birthday Rob I put in a good word with the [cough cough ] NZ cricket team to capitulate and give you an early present :). Had it not bean for that I am sure England would have suffered a shalacking [more coughing ensues] . Regards Rob

I had wondered what K and C could do if they put there resources behind a more detailed range of figures . I think the mistake here was realising them into an existing range with the risk of alienating guys who where already fans of the existing figures. Had they started a new series or range it...
