Title: New Kellerkind figures
Post by: Maxfinn on May 09, 2012, 01:39:49 AM: If you haven't seen the new Kellerkind RFC figure, check it out. It's a great pose of a pilot taking a step and pulling on one of his gloves. I just got mine from the Red Lancers and the sculpting and casting are gorgeous.

Cheers

Post by: Pete Nottingham on May 31, 2012, 03:38:35 AM: I've just had a great piece of news, after my last post I thought why not contact Kellerkind about a seated pilot, so I did, I've just had this e-mail back from Martin Hille.

Hi Peter,
thanks for the idea. And you are right: many model makers wrote me the same in the past. I m working since a short time on a sitting pilot. Please have a little more patience I will bring out the sitting figure(-s) in the middle of this year.

Best regards,
Martin Hille

Good news indeed.

Cheers

Pete.

I have Just received the mechanic and "Let's Go" figures from Martin, they are exquisite. The service is also very swift indeed.

Best Regards,

Keith

Post by: Des on June 07, 2012, 10:54:40 PM: I have written to Martin several times over the past twelve months asking for a seated pilot figure, at the time he told me that he had one at development stage, well, looks like it has gone well beyond development and we will finally be seeing a seated pilot, this is great news. I also wrote to several other figure producers and they all took an interest in making seated pilots.

Post by: rhwinter on September 13, 2013, 03:14:44 AM: Why - the heck - do figures of German soldiers of that period always HAVE to be depicted with moustaches? I know that's funny and everyone recognises immediately "ah, a German!", but as far as I see, moustaches then have been a wide spread fashion for Kaisers only, right? And, sure, for the masses of the lower rank and file in the army. But young officers like Richthofen, Udet and the like? Can't remember a pic. But that's the lot we ned for our airoplane-kits.

This is also the first I am seeing of then des, although Martin Told me over a year ago that he was working on seated figures! martins figures are getting MORE DETAILED and are sculpted better with each release! This is saying a lot seeing as his figures have been most excellent from the beginning!
