Copplestone Castings Selling Japanese Toys

The F-Toys At-At next lined up with some Copplestone German Mercenaries

The F-Toys AT-AT lined up with some Copplestone German Mercenaries

I mentioned in an earlier post that Copplestone Castings is now selling (for a limited time only) 1/144 (≈10mm) WWII Luftwaffe fighter planes, early jets, and Star Wars vehicles.  I’ve collected a few of these, although I have little interest in Star Wars at the moment.  Regardless, these vehicles were too good to pass up, and I hope to find a use for them one day.

I took my collection home to the United States in August, but the announcement by Copplestone Castings last week enticed me to visit my local after-the-market shop (in Japan) this afternoon to pick up another AT-AT.  Besides, this way I can share a photo of the actual model (sans side guns) standing against a grid and next to some Copplestone Castings 28mm miniatures for comparison.

The legs of the AT-AT are comprised of two pieces and poseable; they snap together with hex-shaped pins.

Tempted?  Copplestone Castings’ first shipment is almost sold out, but according to their last e-mail announcement another should be on the way in a few weeks.  The best way to find out when the new shipment arrives is to join their mailing list.

P.S. My apologies for the poor quality of the photograph.
