Are TG turning into a company of great figures and fantastic aircraft?

there has been very few vehicles etc lately?

I think they are taking aircraft sets to a new level.

Right now I think they are the company that is innovating the industry for aircraft in this scale. Beyond the creativity in design they have also addressed the cost by keeping the wooden ones in a fair price point and have also be innovative in offering monthy payments. I am starting to look forward to their monthly aircraft release more than their normal dispatches..... The real question can they ever get costs down as right now - runs of less than 20 planes a month it is still pretty niche...

I do not think we will see AFV's in the near futur. TG concentrates on planes and figures for the moment.

They need to get the facial sculpts as good as First Legion LTD..

I actually prefer TGM WW2 facial sculpts compared to FL WW2 offerings IMO of course.

 

[jazzeum]

That's a different style of painting and sculpting and you just can't change the faces. It would also mean a higher price as in pricing themselves out of business.

They need to charge 2 to 3 times their current pricing to get the faces FL like..Michael

first legions faces are too dark

No wooden plane for me.

I disagree. However, it's a different style of painting, the Russian style. Appeals to some and not yo others.

The only improvement for the wooden airbird series that I would recommend is to include some original figures or at least pilots. For some of the WOW offering, the figures make no sense and seem like an afterthought? I think collectors might even prefer no figure and knock 40 dollars off the price as some are now doubles as people have purchased them as singles. Maybe repaints or something to make them unique.... I am guessing such limited production runs makes little economic sense for figures.

Since we are supposed to be talking about the future; I for one wish them continued success as it elevates the competition and hence the quality of style and content as well as pricing. Some of their figures are superb in my own humble opinion. To each his own yes but, the more the merrier say I!

I wish they would get back into producing WW2 vehicles. They were very good at this. The Hetzer, Opel Blitz, Kettenkrad, Flakvierling, and SdKfz 234s were amazing vehicles at an excellent price point.

[ExRanger]

I agree as well. Their vehicles have been awesome and I like to see more releases as well.
