Yes, I too truly hate this but, given our average age on this list sadly we have celebrated many great lives over the last few years. 


Regardless another nice legacy to leave behind.  I have many of his figures in my collection including those Brian showed, I will raise a glass tonight.

I am sorry to hear about the death of Mr Hafer. But I echo the other comments on his figures, he has a splendid and varied catalogue of high quality figures and covers all sorts of subjects. i do not know if his figures will remain available, but if so it is a catalogue well worth exploring.
