Once again a great review.

Such a shame that the guy who owned S&T pulled the plug on the company and that the masters for these figures have apparently been lost to the hobby. It was a lovely range.

John Rosengrant himself has been selling some off on here that he says he rediscovered when he moved house, but he's charging top Dollar.

I've seen them go for less, and I was lucky enough to get an unstarted S&T "Chosin Few" set (which for years had been my "Holy Grail" kit) in straight trade for two other 1/16 figures (one of which was an S&T 1/16 German) from a member on here. But I agree 100% that these are mighty fine figures, and I also take your point. They are worth whatever someone somewhere is willing to pay for them. I guess it depends on how badly you want something.

Wingnut Wings WWI aircraft kits are another example - Peter Jackson pulls the plug on the company and the result is skyrocketing prices on eBay as suddenly everyone and his dog wants them. I think there's also a lesson in human psychology in there somewhere: the desire to own something that's "rare".

Isn't it strange, that's also happened to me a couple of times: Figure in the stash then suddenly no longer there and seemingly vanished without a trace. Nothing rare/expensive/irreplaceable fortunately, but still maddening and very puzzling.
