Got home from an awful biz trip and had a nice 'pick me up' waiting at the door. I only used my blackberry to take some quick pics, so don't let the poor quality photos scare you off-this piece is an absolute work of art, from the vehicle, gun, mount and crew...not to mention the trailer.

I recieved mine today as well as the Sherman Crab....Unfortunately both arrived with damage.....Never seem to have this problem with any other manufacturers items (Never with K/C or First Legion):confused::confused:...I have brought it to the attention of Treefrog.....Hopefully I will be able to receive replacements:mad: disappointed...a further note...."MY SHIPPPING CARRIER and ADDRESS IS NOT THE PROBLEM".....This has been a typical problem which many other forum members have experienced.

I am so sorry to hear that ! Mine came in pristine condition-and I marveled at how well they thought out packing and protecting this fragile item for the long trip.

Mike, I am glad that your item arrived in great condition....As a rule I am pretty tolerant regarding Figarti as they produce great products....However mine had broken track pieces AND the broken pieces were not even inside the Figarti box.....VERY STRANGE.....Also the antennas on the front fenders were bent way over and I reglued them to the proper position (I own a pair of surgical loops)....I was satisfied with my repair until I noted that the track was also damaged and pieces missing......OBVIOUSLY NOT due to UPS Shipping.....The Sherman Crab had an arm completely fractured but a clean break however the fracture line would be too visible even after a repair ....I am trying to get replacements from Treefrog....Shannon and Dave are working on this for me, hopefully I will soon have these two items in good condition they seem to be great items otherwise. Best Regards Frank
 
Frank, that's just wrong. I'm betting you'll see it addressed to your satisfaction. This was my second Figarti purchase and have to admit I'm very satisfied.

Thanks Rick....I know that you stand behind your products with excellent customer service and communication..... and that's why I continue to purchase Figarti...Thank you again...Frank
 
class Rick.

if only the 1/6 companies follow your customer service and communication :)
 
I got mine today. No damages...just perfect. I don't usually buy Figarti because its above my budget, but I waited a long time for this one. I just had to get it and I was not disappointed. Beautiful. What I didn't know was that the gunsight moves with the flak gun. Nice touch! Rubber wheels too and the soldiers look great. Also the sides are down and ready for combat. Wayne, if you're reading this, I bought those B-A-R scenics on your recommendation and I like them alot. Now I have to get that MP jeep, which has loads of action...like they got ambushed.

Great Pics ! I was a little embarrassed to post the pics I took off the blackberry-but was so excited to get it, I just wanted to show the beast off.
I agree, the MP jeep has great animation, gotta have it.
