Last year I purchased the very limited edition ‘D’Face’ teddy troop figure from Flying Fortress
This figure had a run of 48 units!
Everything was good, I was happy that I got my limited edition toy!
Tuesday 22 May, I get my monthly newsletter from Toydigger with a link to a new product line of Flying Fortress Teddy troops from AdFunture.. and guess what I see?!!!
“Product info:
Teddy Troops is a character by German based Flying Fortress. This is the D*Face monotone version. Teddy Troop stands 3.5 inches tall.
€ 20,00″
CHEEKY BLIGHTERS!
Now i know I got the last one from Flying Fortress, They held on to it for me, so how does Toydigger end up selling them (and not even in ltd. quantities)
BAD ADFUNTURE!… VERY BAD!
I am in contact with Flying Fortress who own the design and were not told by Adfunture about this new run!
I will keep you updated when I get more information.. but for now.. please spread the word to any owners of this original set.
thx

New to the ever growing collection is this super camo Ltd. edition Kubrick toy designed by Jest.
Jest is a member of the design team and contributors behind ‘alife’ (Graff shop on Orchard Street, NYC). The kubrick is based on the Jest plush doll made from his own surplus camo clothes and original militaria buttons. It has almost become alifes mascot figure… very desirable and very collectible.
