On the phone to a mate the other day (on Xmas Eve) who often visits his local ModelZone store in Romford......

He said that underneath the large scale Die-cast buses, is a notice, stating that due to an increase in Zinc prices/manufacturing - that the price of these buses will rise in the New year, from £ 99 to £ 125, a considerable leap.

Having looked at their (limiting) web site, I notice that this HAS happened on two of the most recent releases in the range - yet no mention on the raised price of Zinc.

Is this just an increase by Sun Star only - or can we expect all Die-cast companies to be affected ????????

Most importantly, how does this affect Corgi, if at all ??????
