Cheers Squadron Members:
My Figarti Russian Winter Tiger only needed one small field repair & in my opinion could not be packaged any better. For those of you "on the fence" in regards to purchasing one-do not wait. The Figarti stock photos do not do it justice. Correct me if I am wrong but the stock interior view photos appear to be from an early prototype with not nearly as much detail & interior parts which are present on my production version. In short, the final product is much better-scale military art.
Tally Ho & FIGHT ON!,

Agreed,
I have two of them and there was some minor damage and yes, they need some improvements in the packing and yes, for $300 it should be PERFECT!
BUT!
You'll never get another chance at getting a great model with the detailing only offered in the 1/35 by only the best modelers in the world.
But it's in METAL not plastic in the interior/ exteriors and in 1/32 scale! From what I hear, it’s simply too hard to produce again.
If that still isn’t good enough, then continue getting other manufacturer's tanks in 1/32 and 1/30 scales they're good value for the money and some will rise in value in time.
However for me, I've never regretted the investment in getting these Tigers from Figarti. This is just my opinion, yours is probably different and that's cool. Gees, I’m actually thinking of getting a third Tiger from them.
Yes, I’m crazy, especially since I told Rick Wang last year in Chicago minutes before he revealed his Tigers, that the market already had too many of them.
