Struppy is pretty...odd to.


Struppi“s just German for "shaggy/scrubby" in a nominal form... due to his fur, I presume.

This may be what you are looking for

I'm not sure if you noticed but the question on this thread was asked some 14 years ago so we wouldn't normally expect to see responses now. However, that link could be very useful to people so I'll leave the thread open. Please check the date of threads before responding though. Thank you.

Well, I had never seen those and would like to add Tintin to my collection, so thanks for that.

Maybe a new record on LAF for thread necromancy?

I'm glad it happened though- I wasn't aware of the newer figures shown!

I like that it was bumped precisely on July 5th, day of the last post.

I'd completely forgotten that I asked the question.

Could well be. It was such a useful link that I thought it would be best to keep it open. I had no idea those figures existed. I rather like the 'reimagining' of the characters to make them more realistically proportioned.

Thanks. I am aware of those. Both (or should I say all if I include Copplestone) have advantages. A difficult choice...

Order them all, then choose after you've painted them?

Thomson & Thompson. Check out the link I had never heard of and referenced above. Whether they will fit in with other models...

Buy them all? I am not sure Mrs Commander would agree.
