Dear forum followers
I want to share with you the explanation about the polemical caused for the last 1/35 vignette.
Everybody is claiming because we used commercial pieces to sculpt this vignette.
As all of you know, we are starting the new line of 1/35 figures to open new ways in hobby market.
All of you know more or less our 75mm range in which we try to take care about all details.
I think, we are very popular in this scale and you can like or not them, but never made traps.
When we started with the 1/35 line, we thought we must to follow a created style to don´t make a break into this kind of figures.
We ordered to one of our sculptors this famous vignette leaded for our production manager.
The sculptor is a known sculptor of scratch figures but he never sculpted for mass production.
The main target of the vignette, was to be an exact representation of the historical image but following a created style as explained before.
Our production manager gave to Santiago M. (Sculptor) some Alpine figures and Hornet accessories to use them in the sculpture.
There was a terrible misunderstanding generated by our production manager because the sculptor understood he must to use the pieces to sculpt the vignette.
The second mistake made by our production manager was don’t check that those pieces were used in the vignette.
The busy production schedule made to hurry with molding to give copies to be painted for the box art.
Scale75 want to be clear that we cannot blame on the sculptor for the mistake.
Our company admit his terrible mistake and apologize for it to everybody specially to Taesung Harmms (Alpine), Santiago M. (Sculptor), Hornet and all customers.
Scale75 and Roberto Sanchez as head of the Brand we apologize for all troubles it caused to everybody and is going to move away the vignette of the market till we re-sculpt the copied pieces .
Thanks
