    Beautiful tribute. I checked out Mr. Berselli’s Facebook. What a great artist. His bold yet realistic colors are so nice. Condolences to his family and friends.

    Stupidly I read the last line of Ivo's original post and assumed that we should wait for further information before emailing.
    Still I've now sent one so fingers crossed.

    Looks like I’m with you Del. Hoping that we made the cut and if not, maybe if they go for another hundred after the initial run we’ll get another try.

    Hi Tom, Pretty sure they will. It's a too good a figure and indeed cause to limit.
    Cheers

    It has already exceeded the initial limit and I'm pretty sure that you will be ok just contact lvo, it's a great cause as Maurizio has left a young family who will benefit from the generosity of the modelling fraternity.

    I meant to add that aside from the figure there is also an appeal for donations which will go to the family .

    Dear Friends
    We are in the phase of defining the ordered quantities, I ask you to confirm your bookings within this week by concretizing the payment.
    Many of you have already done so and do not need to take this info into account.
    At the end of this week (15 January) I will close the possibility of having the commemorative piece.
    Orders received will be processed as soon as possible, other bookings will not have a chance to be processed.
    Thank you for your understanding

    Chers amis
    Nous sommes en phase de définition des quantités commandées, je vous demande de confirmer vos réservations dans le courant de cette semaine en concrétisant le paiement.
    Beaucoup d'entre vous l'ont déjà fait et ne devraient pas tenir compte de cet e-mail.
    A la fin de cette semaine (15 janvier), je fermerai la possibilité d'avoir la pièce commémorative.
    Les commandes reçues seront traitées dès que possible, les autres réservations n'auront aucune chance d'être traitées.
    Merci de votre compréhension

    Here are a few snaps of the Maurizio Berselli commemorative piece. Sculpted by our very talented Nello Rivieccio This is one of the 54mm 3d masters assembled for test fitting purposes before it goes into production. Please remember that the cut off date for this limited piece is the 15th January and all orders are coordinated through Ivo Preda who will also be doing the distribution of the figure. Myself and Gordon B. Mitchell will start the manufacturing process in the next few weeks.
    Cheers
