A big project under way....!

[valiant]

Hi Folks,

I have just undertaken a large project which requires a 120mm scale Vickers MG gun - Is there anyone out there who has one to part with, either resin or white metal? I don't mind if it is damaged or incomplete! I could scratchbuild one, but I am conscious of the time constraints!

please PM me if you can help me out, thanks!

Steve

I think I have a couple (complete) and would be glad to let you have one for postal costs from Omaha, NE USA to UK. If I use the Postal Service Flat Rate box, the web site cost estimator says it would be $27 or $28 and take 7 to 10 days.

All the best,
Dan

Cheers Dan - I didn't expect that! If you PM me, we can sort out the money, etc,

Thanks again,

Steve

Foxwood Figures might have one - they have taken over the David Parkins Firing Line range.

Thanks chaps - I noticed this last night, so I will try them. It looks a nice kit, so should do the job perfectly!

I will post some pics soon of what I'm doing soon, but it looks like a bad accident at the moment!!

cheers,

Steve

Hi Steve,
You could always have a word with Ross M.M.M. and see if he would cast you just the Vicker's from his two figure release WW1 Vicker's machine gun team.
cheers

As the webmaster for David J. Parkins/Firing Line can I point out that this is NOT true at all. Foxwood have purchased the out of production 120mm figures from the Firing Line range ONLY. They have not purchased any of the in-production figures or any of the 1:15th/120mm Weapons or Accessory Sets. Neither have they purchased our 1:35th Figure range OR our 1:76th and 1:35th vehicle ranges.

In addition, we have granted Foxwood permission to include our weapons where relevant ONLY with the figures they have purchased from us BUT NOT to be sold as separate items. You will not be able to buy our Vickers Machine Gun kit from Foxwood but it is available from Firing Line via our web site - www.djparkins.com

Hopefully, Terry and Jackie at Foxwood will be releasing all the 120m figures that they did buy from us in due course but meanwhile all the remaining 120mm figures that we still produce are all available on our web site, along with all the other Firing Line items.

Regards

Simon - Webmaster for D J. Parkins

My apologies - I stand corrected. I noticed a number of Firing Line figures being sold by Foxwood on eBay, and it was obvious that they were the 'real McCoy', not one offs. The David Parkins new web site is very user friendly.
