The stash could keep me going for about 2 1/2 years if I take my time.

Otherwise, I'll have to spend more time at the shooting range.

.......reliving your BB gun vs./model days...?

Actually paper targets.  Choice of HK91 (7.63mmNATO), AR-15 (5.56mm), M1911A1 pistol, HK Compact USP in .45ACP, Mauser Kar-98 or Springfield M1903A3.  I've embraced diversity.  There's more, but I hate to brag.

Diversity can be a good thing.............has feeding them become easier since 2008/ 2009

Kar-98 ...gotta name yr of mfr . ............for Hans, if not for me...

HK-91..........yr of mfr........you can look it up on HKPRO website if you aren't sure...

Throw in RoG and it will be a perfect trifecta. I guess Airfix will buy all the unused molds, make the panel lines deeper and rerelease the kits.

I did a search on Google and it brought me to this thread so it must be true!!!!!

I heard Accurate Miniatures rose from the grave and bought all the models.

I found out on the news also today........Trumpeter as well.  Get 'em while you can.

I'm callin' BS on this. It has to be a (stupid) April Fool's prank.

I just did searches for both 'Tamiya Bankruptcy' and 'Dragon Models Bankruptcy' and found squat (at least recently). There are plenty of old threads from other forums, including one on 'Tanks in World War 2' suggesting the same thing, but from 2008. Funny thing is, that thread started on 1 April as well.

Hope that's an April Fool prank.

That does not bode well for the industry.
