Quoted from elsewhere:
I've also seen a statement from Revell (not sure if it was Revell USA or Revell GmbH) that this is purely an issue for the parent company and business is as usual as far as Revell is concerned. |

As an aside, whilst I'm happy for people to comment on this, please focus on facts and not speculation. |

Thanks Paul, this sounds optimistic ....having been consuming [buying/building] kits for some time , I think I have seen this cyclical contraction before ....lately we have seen quite a few "new tools" from Revell and Airfix, lets hope this trend continues though Chapter 11 proceedings.......
