This is interesting as I cannot find anybody who sells Del Prado having these.

That is true but I prefer to buy here in states.By the time you figure the rate of exchange plus s&h it's usually not worth it.

Exact, but financially uninteresting: compare their prices, for Napoleonic Cavalry, with those on ebay and you'll understand why! And moreover, knows that their prices indicated are NET OF TAX!!!

General,
I saw one of those Alpini on ebay today.

Where, please?

( because there is an Alpini in the ugly "Mens at war" range, too )

General,
I guess this is from the ugly men at war series.

the men at war alpini figure is quite well sculpted in comparison to the alpini range. I have a couple of the alpini figures and don't think they are as well sculpted as the del prado/king and country figures. Its almost like another company might have done them for del prado rather than K&C.
I really like the alpini range and have a few of them , with my own favourite being the alpini on the eastern front with the blanket around him..but would have liked it even better if the figures were of a higher quality..

I got these figures last year , and it was the only place i could see to purchase them, haven't seen them appear on ebay! took a few weeks to arrive but otherwise was straightforward enough ordering, think they are based in madrid.
