Please excuse my ignorance of the subject, but what is "Addis"?

No problem...the figure is a dual figure depicting this scene pictured (behind the bag). The Bob Addis will be autographed and they will come as 2 figures but the bases "fit" together...I have a finished prototype and it looks fantastic...I just can't release the picture yet. I will post shortly.
Thanks!

Not sure I can have a piece in my Campy collection where the guy scored on Campy. Just doesn't seem right. LOL
Can't wait to see it!

I was a big fan and supporter of all the reincarnations of Heartland but let my membership go in this latest one this past year.
The statues just don't do it any longer for me. Generic with no detail. I also felt my membership fee was going to projects that had no interest to me On this one, Where is home plate? I also agree with another post, why have a Campy statue for a play that wasn't a success for him Addis, a 3 year utility player??? why $125.00? wow |

Agree that it's an odd choice of subject matter. Also, the figures appear stiff and un-natural (facial expressions included). If they were trying to replicate the photo posted earlier, I would say they really missed the mark. The original Hartlands were so classy and understated, and didn't try to capture every facial detail (such as the whites of their eyes).
This is just another example of how pride of workmanship today can't hold a candle to that of the past. Sorry to be a "downer", but I'm not feeling the magic here, either

Everyone's feedback is appreciated. These were figures that were already planned and in production. Moving forward we are focusing on the plastic figures based on feedback from long standing Hartland collectors (much like the originals). You will see many changes late this year and in 2014. New agreements are being negotiated now on iconic sports figures.
The Roy / Addis piece is almost sold out, but agree with some of your statements and welcome your comments. Thanks for the feedback!
