Hobby Master has gone with a new U.S. distributor Historic Sales. Hobby Master felt their product wasn't being handled well enough so they wanted a company with good contacts and knowledge and they found that in Historic Sales. You can read about it here.

Let me assure you there is nothing to panic over, it is merely a business move to better serve the collector.

Hobby Master wants to "...better serve the collector."? What an absurd idea.

In an effort to improve Hobby Master’s public awareness of their great products they decided to find another distributor for the U.S. market. The new distributor is Historic Sales, you might know them better as Historic Aviation. The Historic Sales people are well versed in the sales and promotion of the products they distribute, unlike the original distributor. Historic Sales will be attending trade shows and doing promotions of the Hobby Master products . The ink is barely dry on the new contract so there will be a very brief interruption of supply until the latest models are shipped to Minnesota where Historic Sales are based. Also Hobby Master and Historic Sales were not given a full list of retailers that were already stocking Hobby Master so if you are a retailer and haven’t been contacted by Historic Sales yet please email them at vendor-info@historicaviation.com
with your contact information and I’m sure someone will get back to you. Hobby Master hopes that you understand that information of the ongoing negotiations could not be revealed until an agreement was reached and I believe that took place Thursday September 28, 2006. The people at Hobby Master apologize for any inconvenience this has caused or might cause but they assure you that it is for the betterment of their products and better service for the retailers and customers. As far as I know Historic Sales will be taking orders from retailers starting Monday October 2, 2006.
