V2 add-ons (2 Viewers)

[redhugh]

If I understand correctly, one of those add-on sets are the three guys from the first V-2. This one is very cool:

A great and unusual set , the possibilities of using these figures extend beyond the V2 set up alone, like a lot

Great releases by Figarti.

Love the Winter Attack.

I do hope Figarti rectify the bespectacle guy with the bag, he's still wearing an SS peak cap, but also wearing Whermacht/Armee ranks on his collar.

Sincerely,

Nasir Kasmani.

One complaint, for those of us who bought both V2's, why do I have to buy 3 duplicate figures to get the guy with the spectacles??????

Completely agree. Don't understand that one. They lost a sale from me.

Dear Youngster & All,

The thought behind the 2 four-figure officer/Dr. VB sets was to give collectors the options to display with their existing V2 set. Also, these figures goes extremely well with the V1 sets when positioning the figures close to the V1 launch pad and rocket (Looks like officers are inspecting up close). So for V1 collectors, these are possible add-ons(Especially with the Extension ramp coming soon!) As for those who bought both V2 sets, good point on duplication issues. But again, these 2 options sets are versatile enough to be used for many different products, tanks, planes etc... I will definitely take your comments into consideration for future option sets.

Thanks again for your support.

Extension ramp coming soon!

other hints of what is coming in the V1 & V2 range?

Any reason a dealer can't sell a few of those "man w/glasses" figures from the V-2 set as a stand alone? That will happen on ebay sooner or later.

Rick,

Thank you for your response. I hadn't thought of the display options with the V-1's.

Want to give you kudos on your FM30 line - don't think I've done that elsewhere. Just trying to figure out how to spread limited funds, and duplicates fall low on the list.

Thanks again, and keep up the great product flow!

The acessory sets are great and versatile for many different diorama's , have the V1 add on set of 4 figures pulling and pushing, and I'm using it for loading a train For space reasons didn't get either the V1 or V2 rockets but have preordered the new V2 acessory sets as they look great and are unique poses that add great variety to dioramas.

 

[nasirkasmani]

The V1 extension rack is great, hopefully coming a spare pulley rack (to complement the V1 on the ramp)

and the headgear insignia of the Guy with Specs need to be amended!

Sincerely,

Nasir Kasmani.

I'm just glad Figarti is offering the option to get the figures from the first V1 for everyone who may have missed it. All of these upcoming expansion sets sound great, and it's especially great news about the dog becoming widely available (though it's a tiny bit pricey).

How 'bout this? and it actually existed!?!?

...and there was a big hoopla when KC first released this model. I wonder why Andy did not rebut his critics then. Thanks Naki for sharing the photos.

NP, if you have another look at the photo nmrocks/Ray posted you will see the petrol fueled pulse engine on the rear, just like the average V1. I think this was the piloted version they made to see why the early V1's were going off course. The female pilot Hanna Reich was one of the very flew that flew it.

The K & C's version has a rocket engine underneath, and that design never got off the drawing board. I have no idea why Andy/K & C didn't make an actual version. Figarti obviously noted our interest in the actual missiles and decided to make some themselves, for which we are very thankful. And they are selling like the proverbial hot cakes.

Any idea when the new V-2 will be available?

I've answered my own question - according to Sierra's website it will be May/June.

N-P,

See: http://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/detail.asp?aircraft_id=213

And it was not critics. I am purchasing military miniatures because I love history (and histories) and they are the materialization in 3D of the past. I am not buying bébelles just because they look cute or are made by K&C (or any other manufacturer).

I still do not understand why Andy didn't make a Heinkel He 162 Volksjäger or a Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet.
