New company,can't locate distributor
Posted by rudedog on Wednesday, July 13, 2011 2:36 PM

Euro model news listed a new model company [ to me ,anyways ] out of China by the name of Meng models.In particular, a Toyota hi-lux pick-up w/ a Russian ZPU-1 M.G. mounted on it. Alot like MIG's, but being plastic,I'm sure it'll come in at 1/2 the cost.Quality, unknown.I located the company website on-line & fired off an e-mail but have not been replied to yet.Their website is a bit odd & not very helpful.If anyone has an idea where to procure their products or has any info about them,I'd appreciate hearing about it. I had my LHS check with Stevens Distributing, but they were'nt able to shed any light.I also checked some of the usual on-line companies with no luck. Again,any help will be appreciated. Thanks, keith r.

The Hilux is not available yet.  It is due sometime in AUG.  My bet would be that the Asian companies (EasyHobby, Lucky Model, etc.) will be the first to carry it when it comes out.
