I posted this email on the UK forum this morning, it may be old news Stateside, but for those who are unaware
Some of you may be interested to see this, having read the posts regarding the rumour that corgi and Hobbymaster were to form a partnership!!. I emailed hobbymaster with the following:
Hi There,
Can you tell me if it is true what I hear on the forums, that you will no longer be producing 1/72 aircraft under your own brand name, and all this range will be sold as corgi Preditors?. I cant believe this is true, as your research and accuracy are so good. Corgi’s choice of livery shades is far different, even when the same livery is depicted (Hellcat) theirs is a completely different colour. Regards:
their prompt reply was :
"Hi Ian,
The adverse is the truth.
We will no longer supply our products to Corgi after the Predator. We may even hold the second or third series.
Thank you for your concern.
