Are these still available? I painted some on commission about 2 decades ago for someone, and I loved the figures. I never got any for myself, but now I am thinking of starting a 15mm Franco Prussian project, and I'd like to track down a few of these guys. Chuck |

I honestly think FalconUS is no longer in business, I know for years people were writing on TMP about issues with the owner and getting figs they ordered. Good luck though! |

That sounds like Falcon UK (Quartermaster). Or is that also Falcon US? |

(Although, I have, over the past few years, successfully gotten some very nice figures from Quartermaster – but it is a different line of figures) |

Both Falcons are having their woes, or are doing disappearing acts. The FPW was from Falcon USA, who also made some nice 25mm German South West Africa figures (and a slew of other ranges, including Battle of Britain 1/285th scale aircraft), and have been MIA for a few years now. Falcon UK made a huge range of 15mm figures for a variety of periods. They have been MIA for the last year or two now. |

FFUK (Falcon Figures UK) have been absent for a long time, mainly due to Kai's ongoing health issues. As soon as Kai's health issues get sorted out, he has promised to be back. Falcon USA – I can't speak to. From what I remember, they had posted a few years back that they were coming back but that has yet to happen. |
