I LOVE Alpine figures- but they are sooooo expensive here in the UK! The sole distributor, AFV Modeller Magazine, advertises them on their site at £7.66, but after clicking to buy, £2.34 is added for V.A.T.! Now only a V.A.T. registered business turning over £50,000 per year can reclaim that tax, and only if they resell the item, so I would estimate !00% of their customers are paying the full £9! [$17-18].
Then there is the delivery charge, [they don't have a bricks and mortar shop]- which is a whopping £3!
I recently sent a box of Dragon figures to a friend within the UK for under £1,[94p].
So in reality an Alpinine Miniature in the UK costs £12! [$23/15 Euros].
In contrast I can walk into my Local Hobby Shop and pick up a figure from almost any other resin manufacturer for a little over half that.
I wonder if a little competition in the UK marketplace would reduce prices- and increase sales, Taesung?

Very well, done. I burnt out on German's quite a while ago. But, I must say, I am tempted by the Panzer Meyer figgie. If it were only in 75mm for me tired eyes

Saw it in flesh....

I saw these 2 painted figures in flesh early this week when I was with Calvin. The anatomy, the volume, the details and post are 6 stars...a must for all WWII figure painter.
