Last nite i was opening boxes full of my 1/48th bandai collection, admiring the box art, reading the diorama tips, and then i came to the mobelwagen. What a beautiful piece. And then i thought who is going to make one for toy soldiers. Kc said they won't do multi barrell guns so i thought it would have to be figarti. Figarti is the one company that isn't afraid of a challange and gets the job done. So i am asking all of you if you are in favor of figarti doing a mobelwagen, wirblewind or ostwind or all three the figarti way. Who would be a buyer?
 
Been calling for the three you mention and, the kugelblitz from the first post on here. They need to be done and, cannot believe they have not. I would think that a multi barraled flak gun could be done by all manufacturers today!!!

I would be interested in any or all of these AFV's. With the caveat when you mention the figarti way that the paint actually stays on the AFV. My Nashorn had flake issues on the side protection plates!!!!

What a small world. When I was a kid, by far my favorite models were Bandai 1/48th scale pinpoint precision series. When my son was born, I bought all of the models I built when I was a kid so that we could build them together. He is about to turn 6, and I figure once he turns seven I will start building them with him.
 
I would most certainly buy them! I bought both Figarti`s Sd.Kfz7/1 Flakvierling and the 20mm Quad Flak 38, which are just awesome multi-barreled guns built the "Figarti way". I`m sure theycan make extraordinary multi-barreled AFV`s!

hi louis, funny how us collectors have things in common. I remember going to and from all the hobby shops in chicago to find the ones that were not at toys r us. My big score was the jadgtiger at the hobby chest in skokie. Yes, fond memories. Still have a bunch i built or half built. Never was able to get the opel blitz with box though. Great stuff to look at once in awhile. I hope you and your son have a ball building them. I am off to the daddy daughter dance with my daughters now. See ya

My son has the Bandai Opel Blitz in its original box ready for him to build in a couple of years, along with an entire closet full of other German, American and British Armored and Soft Skinned vehicles, artillery pieces, and diorama accessories.:wink2:

i never saw alot of british or russian vehicles for sale in the 70's. As fotr the mobelwagen, it was a rare model to find. I just cannot wait to see figarti pruce this model, by the way rick the 234/2 puma would look excellent if you produced and painted the camo like you did on the marvelous fuel truck you just released. What a beauty
