Does anybody know anything about Falcon Figures in america?

They have some unusual south american figures that I am interested in, however I can't get a response from them.

Has anybody purchased from them?
Are they still trading?

Thanks for any help

Peter

I thought Falcon folded a while ago and the owner went to the Phillipines.

Barry did sell up and move to the Phillipines... He first sold to Chariot , as was, and that went south. He then sold to Kai Weaver in the US. He still supplies painted figures on Ebay (Abugnan) , not Falcon specifically thought.

The US chap has a e-commerce site .... but looks half finished to me , and has been that way for a few years.

I tried to source some 28mm Sumerians from him a 5 years ago but he never returned any correspondance. A trawl through various forums (digest lists, TMP , TTGN) indicates that this is part time business affair.

Its a pity really as I have a 1/2 finished NKE army from falcon and could do with another 12 Chariots!

thanks
Simon

Thanks for the replies.

I'll have to keep looking for other suppliers of unusual South american tribes.

When someone starts to produce Mochica figures I will use Mochica figures. And you only knew they weren't because I told you.

Can I have my Romans back now.

Actually Falcon do/did have some Mochica figures.
OK, they weren't called Mochica but they looked very similar to me and were holding the right weapon.
