Chris Higgs Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Any word on the lucky 8 Chris? Turned out to be the lucky 7 - I remembered at the last minute I had to hold onto one of the roofs as an emergency master in case the real master suffers a mishap on its way to or at the the moulders. Unfortunately, you are the unlucky eight person. Sorry. As gathered, the orders did just manage to get to the 12 required. So the kit is now available again, although if all the parts are here by Christmas it would be surprising. Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePipersSon Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Mine arrived last week. Sorry - I didn't realise I needed to report it here. Now, all I've got to do take a deep breath and find some time to build it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porcy Mane Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Hi Chris, Mine arrived last Tuesday. Nice to see some of the old Mopok (ABS) castings still alive & kicking. Thanks again, Porcy (PwD) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveb860 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I received one of these today, so anyone awaiting theirs from the last batch should be receiving them shortly Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
newcastle_central Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Very good news indeed, a slightly belated Xmas present to myself . Look forward to building it, although it is at the back of a bit of a queue at the minute. Jonathan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Higgs Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Just to let everyone know that I am just awaiting the last few castings to fulfill the outstanding orders (5 kits to 4 people). Each year I expect to be announcing the kit will be discontinued, as Bachmann have announded a RTR version. And each year I am surprised when they don't. So just to state, the kit remains in production, and as new etches are expected in a couple of weeks, it will be more or less immediately available.

Chris Higgs Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 After a lot of tribulation, I finally have the etches for the 3mm version of the kit available again. So if anyone is interested in these, please get in touch. I will attempt to contact those who had ordered these in the past. Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

16A Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Chris, it would be a shame if you did discontinue the kit. I for one would rather build one than buy an RTR. I've had mine for a while now but still too nervous to start it! Adriano Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had mine for a while now but still too nervous to start it! Adriano Well, I 'm sure it would be nice if kits were always available. But the number of orders (or rather lack of them) suggest that most people who want one, have one by now. Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Higgs Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Well I would have some more if enough interest were shown to merit a new batch. Well, I have six available right now. Once they are gone, I have to decide on ordering more whitemetal castings to make up a new batch, Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Higgs Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Down to my last one. As you can see, it took over a year to sell the other 5, so I think once this one is gone, that will be it, I have just one of the 3mm version left as well.

Chris Higgs Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Another book closes forever..... Just as a postscript to the story, for anyone going to Wigan today or tomorrow, I am told that the 9 I sold to the Mostyn guys and built by Richard Oldfield (with extra detailing) will be making their debut.
