Connoisseur Figures (2 Viewers)

Combat · Nov 6, 2011

I had a chance to talk with Thor Johnson of Aeroart this weekend and they are adding to their WWI and II lines. He mentioned new Chennault and Rommel figures. The Rommel figure would be in long coat - so maybe France instead of Africa. Also indicated they will do a version of Rommel from WWI and a German WWI artillery set. The latter sounds like part of the Figarti partnership.

Yes those 90 mm figures are now the crown of my collection. And I bought actually 5 at the same time.

Here are more pictures of the other 2 which I have just received after having been repaired.

Enjoy

Most of the pieces you are discussing is made in Russia
Only in St. Petersburg more than 10 companies founded 20 years ago
But Forum has not the theme "figures from Russia"

WHY???

Thanks Combat just saw one on E-bay as well.Great looking figure thanks for posting it,Mike B.

Yeah, eBay. Bad figure. Painting maybe 5/10--
certainly not connoisseur. but then most of what
I see in this thread isn't what I call connoisseur.
To make matters worse the body is disportioned. Looks
like the upper body, lower body and head came from
three different figures.

Yes I do agree the sculpting of this figure is very bad... Look at those legs... Way too big for the figure.

Cheers

Hi Alex ,
I think sometimes we get to focussed on the perfect physique and expect all figures to have it , just food for thought but I have seen many people over my life who have rather disproportionate body parts . Whether its a big head , huge calfs or a women with a huge bum :wink2:, if I seen this guy walk past me I would just think man did you see that guys calves he was pretty thick . I don't have a problem with a little variety just as long as everything they do doesn't end up looking like this . Do i think its their best work... nope . but its not their worst either .. regards Gebhard

Hello ,
Just curious as to what you call a true connoisseur figure ? I know for me the term has many levels .. but what I consider true connoisseur class usually means its way to expensive for me to purchase , something maybe at the thousand dollar per figure level or a little less . I do enjoy looking at Master works so please feel free to post some shots would be appreciated by all I'm sure .. Regards Gebhard
