all you need, are just learn to use Moneybookers.
It is exactly as Paypal, perhaps even easier.

I got a lot of mixed reviews when it comes to moneybookers :)
That's why I prefer the good ol' Paypal. Expensive, and a customer service that's even more unreachable than the moneybookers one.

I know Moneybookers has some mixed reviews on the internet, but I have never had any problems with them.
The problem is, it is the almost only system (except for much too expensive bank transfers), which can be used to buy from former SNG countries. Paypal will not touch SNG countries with a barge pole, just like Ebay.
You do not need to have a Moneybookers account, if not it is a little more expensive than with an account. But still it is cheap and efficient, working just via the receivers e-mail address.
And if anyone wants to buy and support stuff from Russia, Ukraine and so on, then you has to use Moneybookers.
Of course an agent in Europe can be used, but of course it has its costs.
An agent for USA can become necessary, as Moneybookers does not operate in America, but first let us see, how big the interest for the figures will be.
The postage from Russia and Ukraine is about the same as in Europe, it is of course a little slower caused by the way it has to travel, but it is secure enough. I have never lost anything - to or from Russia or Ukraine.

The figures by Andrew Karev seen from different angles

These figures are full of expression, and are very dynamic. I was half exptecting them to move on their own. Absolutely love them.

They have been asked to be able to mix with Copplestones, but I have not seen these figures "in the flesh". Try to look at the page 1 in this thread, there is a picture of the figures together with Copplestone figures.
Generally it seems, all the Russian and Ukrainian sculptors make their figures a tad slimmer.
Something like Minden contra earlier war game figures.
But it is very difficult to evaluate these things from photos, that much I have learnt.
The colour poles, which are loose to be glued into the open hand, will come with the 3 different finials of the old Russian army. It seems the old colours mainly were kept and used by the Whites, even if of course also newer colours were fabricated, but it seems not with any distinctive or special "White" finials.
I hate colours ending in a lance tip or nothing.
It should be possible, if someone wants so, to cut off the finial and drill it out to take a brass rod.

Ah I saw it just now - missed the picture before. Very exciting news! Do you know what else he is planning? White Russian with mixed English/Russian uniforms and Russian gear with Nagants would be perfect.

I e-mailed Mr. Copplestone and asked him to do some more RCW packs including White Standard bearers among other things (like some separate head sprues to do conversions, Mounted White commanders, etc.). No response.
