ivanmoe Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) Had an interaction with a vendor who makes AM for WWI model planes several months back. I could sense the anguish in his comments about business, and tried to cheer him up. However, I really did get the sense that the demise of Wingnut had sealed his fate. Modelers can pick and choose who to order from, but I've got a feeling that MANY of these gentlemen are in REAL trouble in terms of sales and financial viability. Edited June 24, 2023 by ivanmoe D.B.

Citadelgrad Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I got a shipping order and tracking info for the June 6 order. Again, I am in no rush, but since I posted I hadn't heard, I will post when I do hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepp Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Mine is soooo close ... unfortunately, I have to wait for the customs demand to arrive before Royal Fail will deliver, despite the sorting office being a ten minute walk from my house.

nmayhew Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 A shame he is struggling but as someone else said his product line is pretty stale (from a LSP point of view), and i don’t think he has moved quickly enough into the world of 3DP The LSP world is ultimately pretty small in the grand scheme of things, and its aftermarket world even smaller, so you need to ride whatever waves you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMaben Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I don't think Roy masters all the stuff he sells. When I used to bug him about the Hurricane wheels, he was waiting on someone else's 'input' . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is indeed correct there was talk of a FAA Corsair conversion but that has yet to materialise; now, I’ll still buy one if / when it finally sees the light of day, but the time to release that was surely when Tamiya was launching those kits? always easy from the outside looking in, of course; I hope he can see out the tough times Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
