Title: Plassenburg display
Post by: Nicholas Ball on October 31, 2016, 11:16:08 AM

The new display for Mike Taylor and the BFFS have now been set up in the Plassenburg in Kulmbach.

As figures get received, they will be added.

Many Many thanks to Franz and Andreas for setting this up, and to the Plassenburg Museum for agreeing to a Display for us

Looking good!! if each member contributes just one of their little master pieces just think how good it could be.
Just ask a committee man how you can add your figures (-;

That's terrific! Love to see some close ups at some point.

Sorry Mike, Franz didn't send me any close ups. At Kulmbach next year, I will ask Franz to open the cabinet so I can take decent photos.

I think the cabinet next to Mikes was originally for some of Jim Woodley's figures, but I am having problems pinning the family down to display some of them.  Shame really, they deserve to be seen and in a fitting environment too.

As our figures increase, then so will the cabinet.

Nick tells me the next lot of figures are to be posted in the coming weeks so get a figure or two to Nick and be included in the Plassenburg display.

Would like to donate my version of Mohrs 70mm Russian Riken.
Anyone coming to World Expo in Chicago in July willing to carry it back to the UK?
