Swash Design has not been covered here in quite some time and we felt it was about time that was rectified. In this news article we look at the figures they have on offer in 1/35th scale.

Very nice figures, something we don't see much in 1/35 scale... but $23 for a single resin figure? Ouch!

Yes Swash figures look great but as Mario says- pricey. If money was no object....

One gripe I have with a lot of resin figure producers they show the finished product but don't tell you whether it comes in one or twenty pieces with massive resin plugs- I'd like to know what I'm getting for $23

The price does make you take a sharp intake of breathe but those ATS figures are very original and look great.

I agree with you, Darren, but I only wish the photos were sharper. It's hard to tell WHAT they show to old eyes like mine, LOL.

Can I ask what you guys are paying for your resin figures? $23 seems pretty average to me. Just wondering is all.

Cheers, John

The figures seem to be quite good, be nice if we could get some women figures that weren't either pin-ups or just standing about tho'.

Hi Scott,

23USD = £14.36. I pay between £8.00 and £11.00 for most of my figs. At £14.00 + these won't get a look in.

I did not mean to imply the fault was with you. The manufacturer provides most news photos, so you're dependent on them. I just wish they'd send along better ones.

I have not managed to get this company to talk to us yet and E-mails are being rejected. I did not take any slur on what you said it was me just letting you know why the pictures are not the best they could be.
