Who knows what if anything bought Fine Scale Factory?
Permalink   

Ok, I'm STILL searching the web for these models. I know that Fine scale Factory went under in 2004. but the landships website said it was being purchased by someone else didn't it? I looked it up and the web told me they had been acquired by a Winterkamp "CW toy & Models" I emailed them to see if they were still selling FSF, but they emailed back and said that "production had ceased" and also that this particular shop itself was closing down. Does anyone know what happened to FSF if anyone will buy their molds in the near future? please let me know what the good word is if any. Thanks, Josh.

I only wish I knew. I got the A7V and St Chamond direct from FSF a few years ago and the Daimler Marienfelde lorry from a retailer - Wolf Models, I think. I hope they resurface.

I can officially state that FSF were bought by Sergents Mess who hale from leafy Hampshire.

They are slowly redeveloping the range so Google Sgt's Mess and see what there is about FSF.

The only thing I know is my friend Martin Ederveen of Miniatuurwereld.com has purchased all Fine Scale stuff from Tom Winterkamp.
I dont think WW1 is complete.

Greetings,Hans.
