                        Hey guys,

                               I need two GMP 1/24 scale floor lifts for a diorama I'm doing. I used to see them on eBay! all the time, so I was waiting until the budget allowed for a purchase. Now I can't seem to find them ANYWHERE. I checked eBay! again, called several online stores, emailed several online stores, emailed GMP themselves even, they only told me they were out of stock and didn't know when they'd have them again. Are they discontinued?

                        Anybody got ideas?

                        Thanks,

                        Chris

                         

                           P.S. just noticed the red x's in there.  Don't know why it did that. Sorry.

                        I too asked GMP without much success of a definate answer.

                        I asked my wholesaler/distributor... they still have it listed as being available but can't get any. They have been impossible to order for some time now. I've been trying to get a few for months.

                        Maybe somebody else needs to start making them? Big Smile [:D]

                        Good luck!  Wink [;)]

                        If you can't find any the Fujimi garage tools set has a nice two post lift. Hobby Link Japan has them in stock for $10.00. Here's a link.

                        When in doubt just build it. Mark http://www.ipmslivonia.org/ipms/

                             Yeah, that Fujimi set is a great little kit of stuff.  I just bought that one two weeks ago or so, mostly for the tools.  Unfortunately, the lift in it is the wrong type for what I need.  I could probably modify it, and I may as a last resort.  I posted over at Hobbytalk and I may have a couple leads there.  I'll let you guys know what turns up.
