I could use some "actual size" information and advice about combining some 7.5" figures into a 5" set. I got the Three Kings on Animals for the 5" set (65244),...
I combined the 7.5 kings on camels with the 5-inch figures and was very happy with the result. Last Christmas I also used 7.5-inch camels instead of 5-inch...
Thank you, Bill! This is just the kind of information I am looking for. Does anyone have the Kings on Animals figures with elephant, camel and horse for the...
Freya: The three kings in the 5in. size are meant to be used in the distance. In the Italian tradition you will noticed that they are always dipicted in the...
Hi Frank, thanks for your help. I hope that Fontanini will consider that their American customers might have some different ideas about the arrangement. When...
In my other reply, I messed up the sizes that I combined. I have two sets of figures; one is 5-inch and the other is 7.5-inch. On top of that, I have kings on...
Thanks! I had wondered if I would have better luck with the Kings on Camels, but I guess not! Thanks for saving me the trouble on that one! I appreciate...
Bill, do you have pictures of the 7.5" scale animals combined with the 5" scale figurines? I would love to see that. I guess I will have to get the plain ol'...
Bill, thank you for the pictures! The 7.5 camels are scaled just a little too large for the 5" figures, but, oddly enough, seem closer to being right and much...
Several years ago someone (Martha) posted a picture of angels decending in lighted batting. I have the picture but was wondering if Martha or anyone could...

Hi Susan, I looked at your photos for inspiration for several months and finally made the tent. Instead of striped fabric for the back wall, I found some...
Bill, it looks great! I've already purchased too many buildings, but if I were to do it over again, I think I would just build my own and not do the whole...
You're right about the purchased buildings, Susan. All mine are from eBay and I had a rule that I would never bid more than 50% of the retail price. Now, I...
Deb, Just wanted you to know we passed in our RV by Overland Park and thought of the wonderful reunion we all had. Al, Tigger and I are having a wonderful time...
I have a 5" Jeshua and Adin figure for sale. It is signed by a member of the Fontanini family, not sure which one, could start with an "M". There also is...
It's been pretty quiet here for a while. It's usually quiet during the summmer months....everyone's busy. But this summer we've seen fewer messages than in...
Hi Deb, It's great to see your message. I've found some special pieces for my 7.5-inch set. The figures are from Fontanini but they're not made for Nativities....
Bill, Please share photos of these pieces with us. I know a lot of FF's have seen the non-nativity pieces, but it would be great to see how you've modified...
Hello Everyone, I have tried to post using the return key. My post goes into cyber space. Just want to tell you that I miss you. I miss our nightly chats. ...
Hi JoAnn! It's great to hear from you! It just hasn't been the same since Yahoo! did away with the chat feature. I'm thinking of doing a mirror-site...
Anyone can paint their figures to fit a color scheme as long as they remember to follow the advice of their first and second grade teachers: "Stay within the...
Is there a list of the 2007 Fontanini figures and new pieces that are available for this year? It's been a long time since I've posted here....I miss the old...
