Airfix cancels new sets

I know its not comics but there are a lot of gamers and modellers who visit CBO -and I'm interested anyway.

Bad news released by Airfix and Plastic Soldier Review gave this announcement:

ArticleIcon Airfix cancels new setsUnfortunately yesterday Airfix announced that they had cancelled all of their planned World War I figure and battle sets. Whether they will return to making figures in the future is not known, but this news will disappoint many who like us were looking forward to seeing Airfix become a strong player in the hobby once more.

On a more positive note, RedBox look to be working on a couple of early modern Ottoman Artillery sets. More details as we get them.



ALL of their World War One era sets? Sets they had a LONG time to develop and work on for the big 100th Anniversary of the war.  And there are lots of complaints from other Airfix customers and a rumour -a RUMOUR- that the company aint doing so good.

Oh well.
