A couple of weeks ago I've purchased the K&C "little apple seller"......I never mix K&C with Figarti and FL because they look so different, and not only in terms of size, but in this case I think that this K&C figure fits nicely in this diorama......like the last cherry on a cream cake :smile2:

P.S: I miss Figarti a lot, in my modest opinion they've made some of the best AFV in this hobby, and the Nashorn that is displayed here is an excellent example.

Cheers,
Roberto

Very nice. She does add a splash of brilliance to it.

Very happy you like this little figure...You might also like to consider some of our other Russian civilians as well as some others that will be released shortly.

Best wishes and happy collecting! Andy.

I agree the Apple Seller goes very well with the Figarti figures. Great photos! The Nashorn was one of Figarti's best pieces. Figarti armor is the best quality armor in my collection; which includes examples by K&C, TCS and TG. Figarti is the equal in every respect of First Legion and Honor Bound in armor and artillery IMO. Sad that they are no longer in production; their range and quality will not be seen again.

While I certainly agree with Katana that Figarti produced, over he years, some excellent products...I beg to differ on his assertion that their 'range' was all that extensive and 'will not be seen again'...

I believe there are several companies still operating today that have broader and more inclusive ranges of products than Figarti ever did...Just my opinion of course!

Best wishes and enjoy everything you collect, Andy.
 
Andy I did not state that Figarti's product range was extensive; but it was certainly unique among Toy soldier manufacturers i.e. Tiger I with internal detail, Rail Guns, V2 Rocket and support vehicles, V1, S Boat, Stuka in several versions, JS-2, SU-100, IS-152, Panzer IV L70, Nashorn etc.

Unique pieces that no other manufacturer has made to date in 60mm. Granted the product range was confined primarily to WWII armor, aircraft, and artillery; but of the highest quality and detail utilizing state of the art mixed media. I only wish I could have afforded more of Figarti's pieces!
