Last Germany Sculpts… forgot to post earlier

Notice the landing gear!!!

I would say the gear and the wings on that Stuka came out PERFECTLY!
-
Very impressive indeed! Nice work!
-
You’re killing us out here FMG. You keep showing us these sculpts and we are drooling at the mouth to get them. Speed up production. Please. That german fighter is AWESOME.

Hey Field Marshall,
Don’t mean to be a “debby downer” but why is this project taking so long??? I mean it started like what…a year and a half ago- 2 years maybe and still no complete set. At this rate we’re looking at 2020 man. :-(
I originally made a big long post about this but decided it’s not worth it …
How many times does FMG have to answer this question, really?
Italy is on it’s way … everything else will follow rather quickly afterwards (just in case you didn’t notice two more countries sculpts are completed/near completed already).
-
Yeah, I know next month!

**** WHAT IS NORMAL?****

I love your pictures, but i bought italian units and anzac and french dice in November 2010… today we are near to August… any news or i can think that my bucks are lost? Sorry for impatience, but 9 months are enough to be a little tired.
Yeah, I made the same pre-order that you did and am anxiously awaiting my new combat units and combat dice. You just have to be patient a little longer. Jeremy said that the factory told him production would be finished roughly end of the month. When you take in the time to ship from China to FMG, then from FMG to all of us, count approximately another two weeks or so. With any luck, we should all be very happy about mid-August.
Also, that comment "i can think that my bucks are lost?" is downright insulting. Even if this project totally fell through, do you really think that FMG would simply keep our money? Don’t you think that FMG would refund us on our orders? FMG is an honorable company with excellent customer service. What’s more, all the delays and failed deadlines are solely the fault of the Chinese factory they have to deal with. The factory tells Jeremy one thing, then Jeremy clues us all in and when it doesn’t happen, everyone want’s to yell at Jeremy and FMG. We all just need to chill out. We all knew going into this that the Italians were going to be the hardest set because it was all new, to FMG, the sculptor, and the factory. Just try to think about when the Italians are done. Next will be the Germans which are already moving much faster. After that the Americans. The sets will start coming out like clockwork.
Considering i’m a stakeholder and i spent more than $ 70 it’s my own interest to know the status of this project. So shut up.It’s not my will to insult anyone but Jeremy must pay more attention to these things.
If, from the beginning, i knew that i have to wait 12-15 months i would be more relaxed.

We are on the downhill part of this marathon so all you have to do is hold on. I let go of my frustration by burning things and harming small animals…… :evil: just kidding!!!

Yeah buddy, well I’m also a stakeholder and I spend more than $200 for my order so why don’t YOU shut up. If I can wait this long without suggesting that Jeremy or FMG would screw us over, then you can too.
Also, Jeremy HAS been paying attention to every detail of this project. What’s more is he has been sharing every bit of information with all of us here on the forum. This is why so many of us are getting frustrated whenever there is another delay. However, disappointing or not, at least we are all being informed and I for one like that. Most companies would simply leave us hanging all these months with no idea how far along the project is. Try to put yourself in his shoes. You come up with an idea and sell it to a bunch of people then get told your product will be ready on “this” date. Then “this” date comes and no product. You ask the factory and they say "Oops, now it will be “that” date. Then “that” date comes and you are still waiting. Meanwhile, all the people you sold the idea to are getting frustrated and yelling at you “Where’s my product?” Just think about how frustrating it would be to be caught in the middle like that.
I think EVERYONE if you don’t have anything decent to say and just want to complain that you haven’t gotten your pieces yet should just not post. You are taking up space.Amen brotha! Before Jeremy we all waited for NO ONE and NOTHING for YEARS of A&A because no one gave a frog’s fat a$$ about this concept even though we all dreamed of it all the time. Jeremy, the folks at FMG, and the folks at HBG are now making all these things become a reality and the end result will be well worth the wait. Patience is a virtue… Hang in there everyone. :)

You are taking up space.He has been very good at informing us, yes. But the bottom line is that it has taken a very, very long time, and we haven’t even got the Italian pieces yet. And it just drags along, week after week, month after month. Now, I’m certain that FMG will deliver, eventually, but this does not change the fact that it’s taking way to long. Way to long. And you’re way to positive about it. It feels like you’re gripping at straws.
I will buy the pieces when they arrive, and I understand why there have been delays, but you can’t stop people from having an opinion, or feeling bothered about how long it takes.

Believe me, I am just as anxious to get the new pieces and combat dice as anyone else, and just as frustrated that it has taken so long. I am not being too positive, I’m just trying NOT to be negative about the whole situation. And I don’t begrudge anyone of their opinion or their frustration (Sorry Stefano). I feel it too, I’m just trying my best to keep it in check.
I just get a little fed up with people getting on here and complaining that they haven’t gotten their orders when we are all in the same boat. Also, I don’t like people berating Jeremy when he has to inform us of yet another delay by the factory. Everyone needs to understand this is not Jeremy’s or FMG’s fault here. The factory in China keeps giving him false information. It just seems to me that Jeremy is getting blasted for stuff that is out of his control. -
FMG tried to give people time tables but unfortunately things came up. These pieces are almost here and I for one am stoked. Jeremy always said from the start what the situation was he never lied or was disengenious. I know the wait sucks but deal it with it because it is almost over.

People can complain, and they will, because that’s what the internet is for: anonymous rage, immaturity and passive aggression.
However, there was NEVER a guaranteed date. He gave only estimates, and his call to arms was for us, the community, to invest in the form of a preorder to get the project through development. He misled no one, and if you feel misled, then you preordered for the wrong reasons: you wanted something shiny but didn’t think about the risks of “investment”.
This was, and always has been, a request by Jeremy to help fund the project. There was always a hope that the project would move quickly, but NEVER a guarantee. Nothing in your order suggested when it would be done, and besides an honest business ethic and interest by him to succeed, nothing guaranteed a final product. For the risk of this type of niche market, in this condition of the economy, a small business could go bankrupt on an endeavor like this, and often do.
No one should have ordered more than they were willing to 100% lose, and no one should have ordered if there was a timeline they couldn’t live with. If you needed more security, you should have waited for the project to be complete before ordering.
That said, yes, you can certainly be disappointed with the situation, but I don’t believe anyone but Jeremy has the right to be angry. You should have known the risks.
