  1. It seems to be working , probably better if they didnt make any changes to the boxes right meow.
  2. I 100% understand your position, and a large part of me even agrees with you, but Jamston just sent out a news letter and made very mention of the issues you have outlined in your post and the steps he is going to take to rectify them.
  3. Did not know this, and make's a lot more sense as to why they acquired Moebius now
  4. Those are out of production kits, I have no idea how hard it might for you to even get them, you can find them on the US Ebay, its hard to say, I dont know what how capable you might be, they are not for the beginner model builder in most cases
  5. Right, I think it was a given that it was for new kits, cant do anything about the old kits.
  6. There are a good amount of current Japan Patrol kits https://hlj.com/search/go?lbc=hobbylink&method=and&p=Q&ts=custom&uid=372067241&w=patrol&af=selectscale%3a124scale https://hlj.com/product/HSG20258 https://hlj.com/search/go?lbc=hobbylink&method=and&p=Q&ts=custom&uid=373077504&w=police&af=selectscale%3a124scale
  7. That container ship is pretty cool, I like that, you should get started on it.
  8. Its 2018, no model kit should be fighting the builder( that goes every single model company, not just Moebius) .
  9. Pretty nice
  10. Good to mention Erik, the one I did has no steelies included.
  11. That could be what they are doing, trying get an idea of what the export markets have interest in.
  12. I think the point that gets lost a lot of times is the Japan kits are not being made for us, they are being made for the home market , and many times, they are doing subjects that dont always have LHD options. Tamiya is really good at doing subjects that are exported to the USA and including LHD options. Of course, it would be lovely if we got more subjects that have a US export version and they included those the LHD options.
  13. Ive built all of them, the two Partol cars build up just fine, no real issues, the Corolla, its a decent kit if you dont expect a lot
  14. Hobbico is the US importer for them. The link in this thread is for the USA site, if you look at the Japan site, its very different http://www.hasegawa-model.co.jp/gsite/
  15. Yes, very strange start to the year for the hobby.
  16. So, you cant link to the search's you do If yall's care, just go here and type in Pegasus hobbies, select corporation. https://businesssearch.sos.ca.gov/
  17. It is a bit interesting in deed, Google is a wonderful and powerful tool ya know, ive never been there, never purchased anything from them, have no need to know there names, but I know how to look stuff up so you dont have too
  18. Not trying to be a know it all Rob, but one of the name's of the owners of Pegasus ( the hobby store in California) is named Tom, so I do think the new owners is Pegasus Hobbies.
  19. So far, its perry straight forward, but way over complicated in many ways, and very fragile, ive already broke a few pieces, not in favor of the working suspension.
  20. Needing to get new A/B parts, and not sure which part I really need.
  21. He said he got them made up https://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=160653
  22. Why I skim watch them
  23. Was there not one auto model kit in that video?( I skim the video)
  24. Moebius ModelsLike Page 17 mins · Seems like it's been forever since I've posted on here. About a month is appears. I just want to let everyone know that sometime over the weekend there will be a press release at www.moebiusmodels.com detailing the sale of the company. I am hoping everyone doesn't jump to conclusions and think that there's a problem, or that bad things will happen like you may be used to. Things will go on as scheduled. Nothing is being cancelled. All licensing is in the process of being transferred. Bob and Dave are still here. I (Frank) am still here for the time being. I can honestly say that in some areas, there will be more than I would have done. I am honestly physically and emotionally burned out by it all. It's been a long 12 years, and my time is over. With family issues, and my own health issues that need work, I cannot commit to this full time anymore. As some of you know, the last few years have seen me go from tendon surgery, to foot surgery, to constant rehab on my shoulder trying to avoid surgery. It's time. Torn rotator cuff, herniated bicep, I just have to stop and get back to some sort of health. The company is left in good hands, Tom and Larry from Pegasus are taking over the majority share. I'll have a fraction, no big deal. But as most all of you know they've been in this industry for a long time. They know what they're doing, and I'll be here to make sure it all goes smooth. Moebius will not be part of Pegasus, it will stand alone as it has. Not sure what else to say besides look for announcements soon on new product. In this transition time, I hope that you will let us work on new projects instead of having to answer meaningless questions. No real changes as I said earlier! The office will not be taking or returning calls on this subject, nor will they respond to emails. Bob and Dave are staying, but they have no details either. There really are no details as nothing changes other than the address. No further news is available! I have blocked comments here, not sure if it works. If it does let you comment there can be no answers, and anything nasty will of course be taken down and blocked. Hope to see some of you at an upco
