[medtrain]

hi just wondering does anyone know if anything will happen with the old mtk no nonsense kits toolings or is it all gone since alistairs demise

[jimwal]

Is it not with Phoenix Precision Paints Ltd?

Yes and on their web page

Yes and on their web page

 

Not that much available, though.

 

And given what MTK kits were like, is that really surprising?

[jimwal]

I believe Precision only took over what Alistair had developed of the Modern Trash Kits range. Barry Scrapbin may have had the rest.

There wasn't much MTK left in the No Nonsense kits, Alistair once told me that he only bought it for the window pressing tools.

I spoke with Chris about the MTK range and he said that as soon as he sorts out something one of the RTR guys say they are going to make it. He cast some really lovely ends from MTK moulds for a class 24/1 with headcode box or a class 25/0. Bachmann announce they were introducing one.

 

Is there something that was in the MTK range that you want that will never be done by an RTR manufacturer? If so write Chris a letter, or have a chat with him at a show. It might prompt him to produce it, if he can find all the moulds.

...if he can find all the moulds.

And that, plus the state of the moulds, surely is the 64 million Euro question.

I picked up a Bristol/ECW railbus kit from Phoenix at a show fairly recently.

I've noticed stuff on their stand at shows that isn't shown on the website, so there's a degree of pot luck involved.

I got a class 82 done for me about 20 years back. Pleased I got it done. I wonder how many actually did get done
