Dear Collectors,
I appreciate all the great comments regarding our new products. Here are some photos and more information.
They Got Wittmann (British Firefly VC) (ETA-007)
Whilst disputed, most historians now agree that the MK VC Firefly from A squadron, 1st Northampton Yeomanry, 33rd Armoured Brigade with Gunner Joe Ekins can be credited with the destruction of German Panzer Ace Michael Wittmann's Tiger tank on the 8th of August 1944 as part of "Operation Totalise." The Firefly named "Velikye Luki" was commanded by Sergeant Gordon, who was injured and bailed out, leaving Gunner Ekins to achieve fame in what was his first real action. Armed with the potent 17 pounder gun, the Firefly was the only Allied tank that could destroy the heavily armored German Tiger and Panther tanks at range. Figarti Miniatures proudly introduces the mighty "British Firefly VC" (ETA-007) as part of its FM30 or 1/30 scale line. Done the Figarti Way, the Firefly includes two figurines and the fine detail that collectors have come to expect from Figarti.
Price: US$189.00
Highlanders Ready (ETA-008)
During "Operation Totalise," the British 51st Highland Division supported the 33rd Armoured Brigade as they pierced the tough German defenses east of Caen. helping to tighten the noose around the Falaise Pocket. To accompany its new British Firefly tank, Figarti Miniatures proudly introduces "Highlanders Ready" (ETA-008) as part of its FM30 or 1/30 scale line. As a corporal scans the horizon for the air bombardment that will signal the start of the operation, two Highlanders ready themselves with one checking his rifle.
