They are stunning kits, and you've done that one proud. I was quite surprised to learn that they had folded. Being one of Peter Jackson's pet projects, I would have thought funding to keep them going would have been readily available. After all, the man is wealthy enough to have his own historic artillery park and record the operations and gunfire for film soundtracks. One hopes that the molds find their way to a reputable producer who can put the kits back into production.

These are great kits and one I would have bought at some time, it is my belief that Peter Jackson pulled out of the partnership. A friend of mine actually sculpted some figures for them and a commission for Peter Jackson himself

No worries. Thank you for the information on Peter Jackson I knew he owned them for a a little while. I have heard a rumor that Meng might buy or had bought the molds from them.

Thank you Jed. I appreciate it. Wood is a challenge but I'm starting to feel a little more confident about it.
