these look fantatsic, i sqw the post with the drenching german a while back, i expecially like the first 4 figures, the commisioner, Fsb, Gru and germna infantryman.
i live the detain on the "fluff" of the german ss figures too.
really looks like a great addition to the market, upon closer inspection, they are all so full of caracter.

Thanks for bringing the news of Evolution's line of figures. I have found most of the recent AFV kit releases to be uninteresting, but the the new MasterClub, Bravo-6, Battalion, and now Evolution figure releases are incredible! So much for being able to save any money...

Hi Rudi
Your link goes a bit wobbly on me but going to the PF site and following the link works okay. Still think they are sorting the site out. Last night the figures were quoted at under six pounds each wow great.......but now this morning the are up to under nine pounds UK money. Still a great price although I can't see how to pay and I'm a little nervous with any new to me sites about card usage. Paypal would make me feel better.

Hi Alan,
Thanks for posting the correct link. It was a straight copy and paste from pF, and obviously I bollocksed up the link
I see in the pF post that the bloke running the above store does accept PayPal. A Dutch vendor has also posted that he will be carrying the line, but I'm afraid I missed his corp name.
Gray from Colorado Miniatures mentioned over on TLF that he would be interested in carrying this line provided one of his distributors imports it. Having bought from Gray before I'd personally be happier buying from him (no offense meant to the other vendors whom I'm sure are nice guys).
Rudi
EDIT: I've just visited the site, and I certinaly hope they're still working on it. Something appears to be "off" with the prices - as much as I love Alpine's 1/35 scale range, 100EUR is just a tad too much for a box set...

I've just ordered the 3 Wiking figures from Daniel's site: http://www.euromodelshop.ch/
They've got a 10% discount on Evolution figures (to name but one special) until 26th June. Now admittedly they were a US$1 or so more overall expensive than Historica Books (hardly worth mentioning, right?) and they'll only have physical stock on the 10th of July, but what made me buy from them was: 1) that they offer Economy postage as well as Priority postage (the other vendor only offers expensive priority postage - this may only be for non-US customers?); and 2) that not 2 minutes after looking at the postage amounts, and closing the window without ordering, I received a personal email from the owner (Daniel) telling me that the economy postage amount provided by the online for is wrong and that it should only be US$9, and not US$17.46, and that they'd refund any postage differences to my credit card. In my book it's just that extra personal touch that closed the deal for me
Daniel: As I said via email - thanks for the great customer service!!! A+!

Thanks for your words Rudi
In the future i hope to get the shipping costs to a lower price. For the moment the figures are packed in a big round box not practical for the shipping but Sergey said me that it will be changed. If the new ones are smaller it will be interesting for worldwide customers.
