Well, my last blog caused quite a commotion.

There were a few people who were disturbed enough by my comments to actually contact us for an explanation. Apparently the thought of being eaten alive by a carnivorous carpet induced such fear fear into certain readers that they simply had to call to make sure that it was dead!

...

Ladies & Gentlemen,

It is now safe for you to enter the store.We have renovated the lobby and it is no longer the death trap it used to be.The old carpet that used to lay there had degraded to the point that it had become quite the obstacle course, and I'm sure we had lost several customers recently trying to navigate their way through it and into the store.Their bodies are still to be found.

...

AAhhhh, it is good to get back to the store, my home away from home.

I had taken March Break off to look after the kids and now I return, battered and bleeding, to my beloved model section at Aviation World Toronto. Here amongst the plastic, resin & metal that fills our shelves I will heal, my hearing will return to normal and my nerves will stop quivering. I will be amongst like minded individuals who have given up their sanity to collect and occasionally build models, and I will be content! But until that time of healing takes place, I have a blog to write, so off I go, down, down, down into the catacombs....

THE CATACOMBS!!!

Ladies & Gents, a matter of grave importance leads this weeks mumble.

It is not often that I will have information of such shocking magnitude to impart upon your fevered brains, so please pay attention as it may save your lives! Because we like you all so much, we would really prefer that you be alive and enjoying your hobbies! Thus, read on anon, & act accordingly...

The situation that prompts me to sit and write these very words is this: In a few short weeks we will be receiving a  shipment of an item so steeped in glory & legend,mystery & controversy, that few dared to
believe it would ever be made. 

...

After what seems an eternity (but is actually closer to a few weeks since the last shipment) we have received some diecast product from Corgi & Hobbymaster.Both companies continue to excel with their new releases,new molds and re-paints, and this latest round of models was well met with eager enthusiasts snapping up their prizes with hungry alacrity!
