Hi Guys

I believe El Greco will have them ( preordered mine!)

Looks good

looks good indeed.
But still in France language. I hoped they should learn something from the past.
Bring it out in Englisch. You get a great amount off readers all around the world.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Looks like I will have to break out the Collin's French Dictionary again The quality looks well up to their previous standards.

We're still a niche market though Marc. As a translator by trade I can tell you that getting something like that translated is not cheap (by which I mean getting it translated competently & properly, not running it through something like Google Translate and winding up with a load of crap).

I suspect that they have done their homework on costs etc. and have come to the conclusion that it's just not economically viable.

This looks promising and could well draw me back to magazines.
Can just about get by in French so it's ok but I'd have thought that the potential english speaking market sales worldwide would have more than offset translation costs.
That being said, I'm always attracted to a front cover and there's nothing on this one that grabs my attention so I'd really be looking for the broader contents before commiting what I expect will be a premium price.
Cheers

Steve - the original publishing house went into liquidation (March-July), and was then bought by another publishing house. The new publishers understandably needed some time to go through the various publications/magazines/books but from their Facebook page they have indicated that Figurines is back on track with its quarterly editions.
Cheers,

Anyone know who carries Figurines on a subscription basis here in North America (Canada/US)? Or do I need to order it from Europe?

Well Marc, it wouldn't be a bad idea for our English speaking friends to broaden their horizon and learn some French...

Look forward to the new issue of Figurines! Going by the cover it looks to be a bit upgraded too.

I agree with you Johan,but English seems to be the universal language,across the world.

So, thats why it should be in English as did the Italian magazine Soldatini.

Right, Johan......some of us Celts can barely speak English and you want us to learn another funny language

Pretty sure Chuck will still carry it as he used to. He usually doesn't put it on the website.
