Two topics from Facebook group this morning - Lansdowne and Stamp Models

Karl Schnelle · 2023-05-26T20:11:02Z

In case you do not subscribe to Facebook groups, here are two very recent items that might interest you. 1. Lansdowne is coming out this year with a new model - the 1,000,000ith Morris Minor in lilac! I might have to get one. 2. Stamp Models just posted their new 1/18th scale Caddy using 16 sheets of "scalding silver decals" (never heard of that before, but may be a Chinese translation issue). They also had a paragraph on their 1/43rds: "A lot of people have mentioned that we use silver pad prints instead of Chrome lines on 1/43 products. But we are forced to do so. Compared to etchings that look shimmering, pad printing silver does look less glamorous. But when you take your model out three years later, the etchings bounce up instead of sticking to the body. This is something most players don't want to see. Because the scalding silver sticker is very thin and soft, if it is used on 1/43 model, such a thin scalding silver decal will easily break, thus unable to meet the needs of production."

When it comes to keeping the peace and demanding respect for all, which nearly all of us do so well, I'm not going to "get over it."

John K is responsible for the decorum in this forum and I back him up 100%....

If I had his job here, I wouldn't have been as patient for as long as he was.
