I thought Magna had been for sale for some time now. Didn't someone mention it at Telford 2014?

Yeah I thought it wasn't the first I'd heard of it, but I couldn't find anything on here so....

There was an advert in the model mag's a couple of months ago and I'm sure it's been discussed on here ? It's the whole shebang as one lot which may make it difficult to shift. So it might be lost, which would be a shame or just part of the range may get sold on latter.

Now I know that's been posted before as I'm not that bright ! Although it may have been on BTS

Nope sure it was mentioned in passing somewhere.

Anyway yes your right he doesn't have the time or the energy to break it up piecemeal as he's based in Spain so somebody would have to go get it all. Plus its all bespoke masters, moulds, decals, so I can't see him letting that lot go cheap or letting the more popular items go individually as it makes the remaining bulk of it less attractive.

The trouble is the small traders like Freightdog and S&M just don't have the capital available to buy a job lot like that and even if bought they would want some of those kits retooling for better resin, built in structural supports too bring up to the standard of there kits. Which makes them even less appealing

It'll have been mentioned on Britmodeller by Chris Foukes (aka Chris57) who is Magna's UK agent and can usually be found on the Collectakit stand.

Sad if we lose them, really. Not that I've bought any but still.....
