Hi, Does anyone have the FAA 20mm French? I already have some of the excellent Blitz 20mm French, and I am wondering how they compare in terms of quality, size, and proportion. Thanks! |

FAA are slightly smaller than the Blitz ones. They are however very nice figures and you could use the two together. Two guys in our club have French armies, one done with Blitz and one with FAA. They look very nice mixed together. |

I have some FAA French. Bought them quite some time ago when the company was UK based. They're nice figures. |

I think tha the Blitz figures are the better of the two but they do mix quite well. |

The FAA French are very nice figures indeed, and the variety is quite comprehensive to say the least. My own French forces are all FAA, and the 47mm 37SA is a real gem, the best I've seen of this weapon in any scale to date. Hope this helps!  Leland R. Erickson Metal Express metal-express.net

I bought quite alarge number of the FAA French when they were based in the UK. I also have recently started buying sone of the Blitz. Ithink they go wel together. If anything the FAA are a little chunckier then the Blitz. |

Is there an Australian stockist perchance; postage of $25.00 USD US on a $45 USD US order seems a tad steep, unless I'm reading it wrong
