link Not all of it but some of most lines and… wait for it… pictures!!! Prices in Canadian dollars

I have nothing to do with it but I thought some be interested

This is not the SF … OK I lied. He does have the SF stuff and it's all in stock

Only a few of the 1/2400 ships seem to have pictures so far. Still that is a huge improvement over the original web site, and I hope that the new owner adds pictures of the rest of the line in due course.

Great news!

Good news but it is the WW I I seek.

Credit where credit is due,…the CinC listings are coming back on-line with remarkable speed. Much faster than ought to have been expected. I shudder to think at the amount of work involved.

Too bad they won't talk to me about their debt. Very low class.

Tgerritsen Supporting Member of TMP13 Jul 2019 10:11 p.m. PST

Isn't this a new company that bought the molds? Would they be the ones with the debt? Or the old CinC?

Covert Walrus13 Jul 2019 11:04 p.m. PST

No listing yet for the SF items, but at least the categories are up :)

That drop down menu on the website is a mess, and the prices have dramatically increased, Canadian dollars aside. The 1/285th World War one aircraft are now $9.24 USD for a pair (converted to USD). OUCH! It gets worse, ONE F4 Phantom is $9.24 USD! Can get a Raiden F4 from I-94 for half that!

Love the fact that someone took the CinC range on (and THANK YOU for that), but the benefit of CinC beyond their clean casting was their economic pricing as compared to GHQ. Seemingly the new ownership is trying to price them higher (covering costs I am sure) but might be pricing them beyond what some might be willing to pay I am certainly not going to buy aircraft that cost twice as much.

I contacted them recently, and they said that they were adding stuff to the site every couple of days, and expected to have everything up in another month or so.

The price increase is a bit more than I hoped for, I know that I'm adjusting my planned purchases for my Cold War project as a result. I guess that we'll see how it works out.

I'm still awaiting for the rest of the 6mm Sci-fi SEM line … frown

Cerdic14 Jul 2019 7:23 a.m. PST

Blimey Bill! Another one! Are there any wargames companies that DON'T owe you money?

Personal logo McKinstry Supporting Member of TMP Fezian14 Jul 2019 8:11 a.m. PST

Normally when you purchase a company you create a new entity and you only buy the assets leaving the liabilities in the old firm. It would be highly unusual particularly for small non-public firms for any debts to transfer.

Isn't this a new company that bought the molds? Would they be the ones with the debt? Or the old CinC?

The "new guy" told me he is not a "new owner," just doing retail for C-in-C:

I am going to be selling CinC products and doing some work for him, I am not buying the company/ debts.

HMS Exeter14 Jul 2019 11:26 a.m. PST

I saw the 2400 scale Alabama at $15.50 USDcad and was shocked at the increase. Then, I did the conversion and it's $11.87 USDusd. It's an 87 cent increase, ho hum. My worry is what shipping is going to end up looking like.

Thresher0114 Jul 2019 1:25 p.m. PST

Prices, as mentioned by the original poster, are in Canadian dollars, so that helps a bit.

1 Canadian dollar = 77 US cents, currently.

Alas, sadly, still no listing for the 1/4800th ships I covet, yet.

chrisswim14 Jul 2019 1:59 p.m. PST

Thank you Dragon6. I will check them out.

hindsTMP Supporting Member of TMP14 Jul 2019 7:53 p.m. PST

@Thresher01

Didn't the original CinC owner keep some of the lines? IIRC that included the 1/4800 ships. The implication was that he was going to expand the line.

Available Again ???
From homepage link click through: PFC – C in C / World War 2 / Soviet Union WW2 / Medium Tanks / to link And scroll down to "CinC R014 T-34/77C" hover on the picture and click on Quick view "2 items Warning: Last items in stock"
Are these in production (i.e. new company), or is "new guy" acting as an agent to liquidate existing stock?

Dynaman878915 Jul 2019 11:03 a.m. PST

Supposed to have bought the molds for new production.
