Radub Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Not to “flog a dead horse” that is actually neither a horse nor dead, but Wingnut Wings still exists as a company, it is still registered as a going concern with the New Zealand Companies Register. Whether they are producing or selling anything right now is so far beside the point as to be a tiny speck on the horizon. They still exist and they can take legal action to defend their name. In fact, It is quite possible that they will also go after some people who libelled and harmed the brand.

Pup7309 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Hmm interesting. Just curious- how can you stop a company in China? Threaten companies in US etc not to place orders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pup7309 Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Does this mean we won’t see border releasing WNW kits? Meng Dr1 s was legit but maybe not Border Edited November 3, 2021 by Pup7309 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Jock Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 If there is a legal dispute taking place, how did Border acquire the molds for the kit, purchased from WnW, or pirated from the manufacturing company producing the kit in China? This is getting interesting. KJ 109 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokey Pete Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Putting speculation to one side, as it’s not really anything I indulge in too much. I simply hope that whatever it is, gets resolved quickly enough, and I’m able to buy the kit. If not, it just means I’ve got £600 to splash elsewhere on other subjects instead. No dramas. scvrobeson and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radu What, “go after” former staff who talked about what happened? Or is it the people in these forums who wondered why WNW was stopped dead in its tracks you’d like to see them “go after?” Who are you, International Man of Libel Law? Are you going to write an amicus brief? Name names? Come on, man. Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were statements made about Peter Jackson's tax affairs, business acumen, his treatment of people, behaviours and politics that more or less stopped short of depicting him as some kind of Bond villain. Everything is in the public domain. That kind of stuff was reckless, personal, had nothing to do with models and contributed nothing to the debate.
