Re: Something strange about my new Rozzie Geth II P-47

My Rozzie Geth II has the same odd markings .............purchased from Flying Mule in 2007.


That is strange -- anyone have the model with correct non-PC swazis on the kill flags?

I have the Legends Rozzie Geth P-47, it has German Crosses, which is at least an improvement over dice!

Re: Something strange about my new Rozzie Geth II P-47

My Rozzie Geth II has the same odd markings .............purchased from Flying Mule in 2007.

There's been a major stock-dump of all G11 FM models (political corrected models WITHOUT swazis and such) here in Germany. These sold for between 50-40% of MSRP. Maybe the Mule got some from a stateside FM distributor...

The new catalog will show that a lot of models are beeing retired...

So dumping stock was to make room for the coming 2008 releases.

Hmm... the model in the mules pics looks like it has swazis... strange. I wonder if the ones that were authorized for sale were all European overstock.......

Update: I saw this model in a shop yesterday with the correct swazis -- pad-printed even.... kinda cheeses me. Though that model was $60 and I paid quite a bit less than that. I'm sure this is a model meant for overseas that was dumped in the U.S. instead.... seems like there's a lot of 'em floating around out there. So if you bid on one on ebay, you might want to ask about this.
