Gregg Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Issue #205 was sent to printer last week Doing the last of the paperwork now, it's been plated/printed, and should be mailed out once they get the rubber check for postage from me. Heads Up: There are two misteaks that I know of that I missed in one bit, it's my fault, no excuses, but this was a very hard issue to do. It's Harry's last issue, and every time I worked on the bit it hurt, I know, sappy to say, but that's the way it is. So, now it's 26/8 on Slot Cars #7, and then work on 206 AND Contest Issue, at the same time, hopefully I can sit up long enough to do this. Thanks for your patience, and support
TOYCARTEC Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Thank you for your dedication to the magazine, Gregg.
mikemodeler Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Appreciate the update Gregg, will look for it at the Hobby Shop.
crazyjim Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Can't wait to get it. It's only been a year since the last issue and I've been going through withdrawal waiting for the next issue of the best mag out there.
TonyK Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Yep. Long time between issues but it's always worth it. I read every page even if the subject isn't really something I'm interested in because the content is always top notch and I realize how much effort went into the magazine.
LDO Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Don't like the wait, will still renew subscription. It's a good magazine

majel Posted February 22, 2018 Posted February 22, 2018 Looking forward to the next issue as always. Take care of your back, your health is so much more important than the health of the magazine!

Naturally I can't find it. My subscription renewal was paid a few days after the magazine arrived. I certainly don't like the excessively long intervals between magazine issues, but look forward to getting another issue soon.

Hardly a day goes by that I don't think of them. Memory of them provides me inspiration when I'm at my wit's end. My thanks to you for persevering and providing a great magazine and forum for us.
Gregg Posted February 24, 2018 Author Posted February 24, 2018 Thanks And we just lost Tom West as well the other day. Sad days
Danno Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Go forth in better health! Best to you my friend.

Sad days I'll bet most of us here are closer to the end than we are the beginning. sad days indeed. Hardly a day goes by when I look at my mirror I dont think of Harry
allis200 Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Got mine today. Looks good. Like the kit review layout. Still waiting for my Scale auto. Hopefully soon.
Danno Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Got my Issue# 205 today! [Insert 'Happy Dance' here.] It's a good one in the tradition of the best issues! Long and eagerly awaited, but soo glad to paw through it! Made even better by my appearance in the mag in two places! Great way to class up an issue, Gregg!! Sad to say, it is the last one Harry laid out. There won't be any more "Harry" issues. The only silver lining to that cloud is that our friend Sean Svensen is taking on the Graphics/Design role. Great job, Gregg, Darryl and crew!
russosborne Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Anyone know if this is available at any shops, mainly in the metro Phoenix area? If I were to subscribe, would this issue be part of the deal? Thanks, Russ
Ridge Rider Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 I just pulled the plastic off and am quite excited by the cover to delve into this issue. It will be bittersweet to see some of Harrys last contributions to this hobby. Thanks Gregg
TOYCARTEC Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Just found #205 in the mail box. Great to see it and another great issue. Thank you Gregg..
Sixx Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 Got my new issue today!!! Thank you Gregg!!!!!! Awesome issue! The Read bros kicked some serious metal!
gotnitro? Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 Local shop had 205 fresh from the mail truck, great tribute to Harry !! Good to see the mag back in circulation
