    Following on from Valiant's How different is different ...? thread, and noting that member's views of what represents different varies, how many PF members would be interested in purchasing a model of this Austrian Jaeger 1866? By purchasing, I mean be prepared to crowd fund it to make it a going concern for the producer?

    Well this one went over like a lead balloon. Sorry Ellie but it looks like a non-goer commercially. Shame really, as it is a neat looking figure.

    Hi Chris

    As others have said a shame but no sense doing it if not commercially safe as much as possible

    Thanks Kev. There are a lot of Austrian subjects from the Seven Weeks War which would make good figures.

    Certainly a relatively untapped source there

    Perhaps not too commercial as not that colourful ..but I like the period

    Probably right Nap. But then again WWI and after aren't that colourful either. In fact they are rather bland and repetitive.
