                        I walked into one of my local Hobby Shops yesterday, and the long-time proprietoress greeted me with the news that "... AirFix and Heller are going out of business...". Does anyone know if this is true? Have I arrived late in this regard? Is the store owner on Funny Meds? Should I start buying up stock? Would hate to see it happen, if true...

                        Thanks, Gents- will be storing my AirFix/Heller items more carefully going forward, I guess. Looks like I'll be paying a visit to the rest of the nearby retailers over the weekend, as well....
