Hmmm, just came across this one on ebay. Looks like a well known manufacturers Partroopers set to me... No mention of said manufacturers name though.. He's also sold a lot of Andrea figures for silly prices..

Henk,

This seller has already been identified as a re-caster. He even offered the well known 90mm templar as a resin figure!!

Hi Dave,

see, I told the voices in my head that I'm not paranoid.

Just thought I let you all know. He has only been trading under his current ebay ID since feb.

Cheers
Henk

Could someone tell me where this is in the UK?

Item location: Item is From ShangHai, United Kingdom
I can't locate it on my map.


The problem is as long as people continue to buy them,
people will continue to recast.
