The following are prototypes. The tank in black is supposed to be painted in winter colors (I guess they didn't get around to it yet).

Great photos Brad. The Kingtiger and Panther Ausf. F shows Figarti is back and with new products to prove it! Excellent news. Matt needs to provide price and availability ASAP.
 
Thanks for posting Brad, the new King Tiger looks awesome and I love the two newly released Panthers as well. The summer Panther with the battle damage will work perfectly with my other summer panther with air defence camo as it looks to be about the same in colour.

Thank you very much Brad for taking your time and for all the great photos !

I'm no expert, but does the barrel on the King Tiger prototype look correct?
It seems to be missing that second recoil band near the mantel.

Here's a better picture of what I mean.

The 8.8 cm KwK 43 L/71 came in two versions. The first version had a monoblock one piece barrel like the one on the Figarti prototype. Due to the high rate of wear on the end 2/3 of the barrel, a two piece barrel like the one in the photo was produced allowing replacement of just the end section of the barrel

Brad. Is it a trick of the camera, angle of the photo and all black colour that makes the slope of the Tiger II glacis appear very shallow?

I will see if I can take a look tomorrow. They're in the process of packing and moving things for the Show.
 
Please, someone at the show post pictures of the K5 gun figures and the price?

Thank you

Carlos
 
Carlos, the figures were in the box. I will see if I can find out the price.
 
Only 20 being made and it will be $2,500 shipped by Figarti to your door.
 
Oh look the paint has already peeled off the one tank!

I hope the Panther F loses the Zimmerit and anti-air top armor in production. I feel these features detract from what would otherwise be a great Panzer. IR night sights would be a nice feature.
