I have always liked "true 25mm" Falcon figures.
No more than now. I am painting some Askari figures for a friend's Italian colonial army. I have two different poses, and am painting them at the same time as some truly wretched Askari from another manufacturer that I decline to mention out of politeness.
The Bersaglieri were also fun to paint as were the Boxer Rebellion.

So. How can I get more?
I understand the molds have changed hands. Is the new guy putting them into production?

This is interesting: "International Shipping
For international shipping we charge $120.00 USD. Reason being that we have had great trouble with shipping internationally. So, the $120.00 USD is used to pay the cost of the shipping which is done by weight. The money left over from shipping the order will be returned after shipping is complete."

Is that the Falcon UK range?
I am looking for the true 25mm USA company.
Different company.

John,

This is presumably the US company. From his front page:

Falcon figures is a family run company, specializing in historical miniatures and buildings. Everything is made in the USA.

Well, that Falcon is priced in dollars and proudly made in the USA. Perhaps Falcon US site is partial as it gives pricing for colonial though there are no such product listings?

No pictures of castings, I absolutely hate that!

unfortunatly i have to add that their colonial 25/28mm is very nice with rare to find Abbyssinians, Italian Askaris (even an early type and a Penne di Falco lancer), Germans SWA and Moros….but , having tried to buy them ..or at least have info about them from years..they not even bother to answer…

Luisito01 Jun 2015 1:59 p.m. PST

Its very hard to contact them by eails . I heard people didnt receive their orders…Best thing to buy in conventions.

I have asked this same question over the last few years. Some of the Falcon 25mm SYW range is available from Matchlock Miniatures – Caliver Books in their as Hessians in their American Revolution range. I have tried to contact them concerning the rest of the SYW range with not response. I also have tried to contact the supposed USA manufacturer by email, again no response. It is a shame as I would like to by some of the SYW cavalry to add to my collection.

Bruce please pm me for a list of Falcon 25mm SYW cavalry, infantry and artillery for sale.
thanks,

Hi chaps,

Matchlock Miniatures run both the Falcon AWI and Falcon c19th/c20th ranges including Boxer Rebellion.

Available here.

We're very happy to ship to the US, full details of ordering, shipping costs and casting times are available on our website for those unfamiliar.

And if there are any figures you want to see that don't have a picture, drop us an email and ask – we bought Minifigs with very few pictures and it's a Herculean task for our 2.5 casting elves to photograph everything and we don't want it to get in the way of peoples' orders!

Cheers

Dave

Link won't open for me. Can't find any Falcon references on your site.

@ Caliver;

Okay; I found the link for the Falcon products on your site. Is that all that you imagine offering? None of the SYW ranges: Russians, Austrians?
