Don't know if anyone is familiar with this company but unfortunately they have gone into liquidation

They did some really good limited edition TV series character figures, some from the 60s like Captain Scarlet, Thunderbirds etc. They were really well done and great packaging albeight reasonably expensive. I had the Captain Scarlet from them a few years back in 1/6 scale, the nameplate and tunic eppaulettes light up, and placed an order year last April for Captain Black and after that Captain Blue to get the full set. Think the release cost was around 200 quid but luckily I only paid a deposit of 30 quid this time around, glad I did now.

I've received an email from their administrators as I'm on the order books with an unfulfilled order. Unsure I will see any monies back Luckily its not a great amount but I expect some customers paid full amounts upfront.

Times must be hard for these companies and now Wilkos is down the pan from today

As a Gerry Anderson fan, that's a very accurate model she sad news. I presume the slightly startled expression is because of the Mysteron crotch clamp?

Heard about this over the weekend as we work with them. Huge loss to the industry.

Think you're right, it's not the best location

I thought something wasn't right some months back as to be fair they did send order updates out but was starting to think the order will never be fulfilled. I just put it down to the pandemic and things slowing down.

Shame as they did some good stuff
