I said it at Timelines and I will say it hear, Great looking kit, and glad to see more 1/16 scale stuff. Remember to do some Allies ones also (US, Brit, etc).

I love the two head option. Great idea.

Superb painting by my friend, Gino !!!

Hi Taesung,

beatufil figure! I like the pose of 'your' figures, always something new in a well(/over)supported era.

Remember to do some Allies ones also (US, Brit, etc).

Remeber Alpine's poll on what era/topic would be most wanted: WWII German, and Taesung mentioning somewhere, that WWII German sells. Nothing to do about... Eventhough co.'s like Alpine still always bring something new to the scene!

Cheers
Denes

Great looking figure .. Perhaps we could see these new excellent 1/16 scale sculpts available in the 54 mm Alpine line as well (and visa versa)...just a thought

Thanks for the kind words, gents!
Please don't forget that my previous 1/16 figure
was WW2 Russian Officer (16002), an Allied subject.

Remeber Alpine's poll on what era/topic would be most wanted: WWII German, and Taesung mentioning somewhere, that WWII German sells. Nothing to do about.

This is not my own poll, guys. This is what my dealers and distributors
(well, most of them) tell me. And I believe that I get the most accurate
market response from them because they are the ones who deal with
the modelers. And there's only one way to convince the dealers.

Sorry for the miscommunication, and of course, NO criticism intended towards manufacturers!

Taesung,
Thought I'd put in a wish list response to this forum..& just to further envelope the whole German sells thing (LOL)...as a WW 2 Diorama buff...
I would love to see your line come out with some additional German tank crew sets of the 4-5 man set variety that can be posed to sit inside the actual turrets and hatches ..and while we are at it how about a few Italian tank crew sets ..bet these would sell well enough..
Thoughts??

Hmm, first figure got very strange face ! It`s the mongol warrior with SS uniform ? Alpine, Im confused...

Didn't know the figure resembles a Mongolian person... Maybe you have
seen more Mongolian people than I have. But I think the figure looks quite
"European" to me. But then again, Europe has people with wide array of
facial appearance...
