A Very sad day. I just learned that Verlinden has closed it's doors and all the masters and molds have been destroyed....

I have used this mans product from the 80's. He truly was a master and made some of the best figures and kits around. Start scooping up ebay kits guys, they will never be produced again!

feck i just sold a few cheaply ! but at least it was to members at least i have another 20. stormtrooper figures are good so they're still going !

did i mention i have figures to sell when your tank is a shelf queen ?

What a real shame. I am currently slowly assembling his German Tank crew kit. Real quality mouldings. It is a loss that the moulds have been destroyed, but I think I can understand - having put his name to such quality, there would be an unwillingness for that reputation to be damaged by someone not taking such care.

not so late if we have a few resin moulders between us i have loads ofnthem !

No sooner has the news hit that pricing has gone up already on a few ebay sites... Stuff that was on discount no more...

All I can say is that if any of you guys have pristine originals then it would be great to see someone making moulds and producing them.
