Job Posting: We’re Looking for a Lumberjack

As far as new product goes, there seems to be a logjam of sorts, delaying the arrival of a number of important lines and products well past their initial due dates. While Hobby Master has hit the mark time and time again, other manufacturers have seemingly succumbed to a June Swoon, continually getting pushed back on the release schedule month after month. We’re still awaiting word on when the following manufacturers are expected to get their product to market:

Modelcollect

PMA

JC Wings

Eaglemoss 

Walterson’s Force of Valor

Wings of the Great War

Corgi

Solido

Dragon

Come on guys, time to make the donuts and get your product in the pipeline in a timely fashion…

Modelcollect Continues to Put its Best Foot Forwards

Never one to shy away from a challenging project which some are saying has led to long-promised projects being left on the back burner, ModelCollect seems to be devoting more and more of its energy and resources into its sci-fi series, Fist of War.

Say hello to Helblar and Kaiserkafer, two 1:35 scale fighting mechs that seem to draw inspiration from the Battletech Universe

In fact, the Company announced recently that they plan to dabble in the 1:35 scale market, meaning some of the monstrosities they are dreaming up are going to be rather large and some what incredible when everything is said and done. Its not clear if the 1:35 scale projects will be offered as pre-assembled models given their size and no doubt higher price tag, so the jury is out for now to determine their fit within our product portfolio. Still, its always nice to think outside the box and applaud their efforts at taking things to new heights, depths and fields of battle.

And lest we forget Wotan, an ungainly 1:72 scale six-legged warrior ready to do the Nazi’s bidding, whatever that might be
