High octane Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I really haven't heard anything as yet, and I still have plenty of model kits to build yet so no sweat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Van Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Long thread covering this under 'Hobbico' Revell's owners......old news... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aurfalien Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Hi, Wait a minute, I thought this was a Chapter 11 bankruptcy which means re organization etc... I certainly can't imagine the brand and its rather wonderful line up of kits going away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi and thanks Rob, I read some of it but clearly not enough. I'm actually very sad over this news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 The way I look at it, Revell and Monogram have many owners over the decades, some more successful than others. The brands will likely live on with new owners, away from the financial incompetence of Hobbico and hopefully in a better position.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I certainly hope they don't go down the same path as Jo-Han! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
