NEW PUTZ HOUSE FIGURES AVAIABLE

Post by Pete R.Oehmen »

Hello Fellow Enthusiasts, Here are some of the replacement figures that I started producing. For the time being they are cast in resin. They are exacting to the originals, with every flaw and pit as the Japanese sculpted them. I am selling them unpainted for now otherwise the hand painting would add cost. As you can see I've included a bag header that shows the original color schemes. I know that there is some interest here at cardboardchristmas. I thought I'd see who may want to purchase some of these? I'm starting these out at $7.00 each or $6.00 each for quantities of 5. I will be presenting these on Ebay as we get closer to Christmas so you have first chance at these. As I've said in the past I make NO PROFIT off of my items. Everything I make goes back into our hobby. I've already invest heavily into the molds, the proto types and the casting not to mention the materials. I still have 15 more original Japanese pieces that I need to mold so we will have the ability to replace any and all figures that graced our old Putz Houses. You can contact me at oehmen@sbcglobal.net if interested. Thank you, Pete

pete...

i really like what you've "recreated"...and i echo what steve said..."what a great resource"...

my observation...the $5/$7 price point for an unpainted figurine (that you can't get anywhere else) is well within reason...

one question...is the hole for the mounting wire drilled in each figurine?...

my very best regards...

howard...

Thank you Steve and Howard. Yes the holes are drilled and each one comes with a wire.

Hello Steve, I have the large red car cast already. I'm not sure I know the yellow car?

Sorry, it's a red car with yellow highlights I think.

Just checked red with yellow wheels.

Thanks Steve... Isn't that the cardboard car? If not I'm not familiar with this one.
