Round 2: good news, bad news, better news.

Posted on by

I’ve received some updates this week from Round 2.  I wish it was all good news, pretty pictures, and such.   But it is good news, bad news.

Earlier this week, Round 2 sales reps sent out an email to distributors indicating some kits had been cancelled.   And then, literally, an hour later, they uncancelled one of the kits.

First the good news.  Hex Marks the Spot, the reissue of the old MPC kit, has NOT been canceled.   In the original notice sent to distributors, the kit was on the cancellation list.   But the powers that be, promptly uncancelled the kit.   So it is still good to go for later in the year.  Exact release time is now To Be Announced.

Now the bad news… at least one other kit is in limbo, and most likely cancelled at this time.  Spaceships of the Future was also on the “Cancelled” list.   For now, it is best to say the kit is not coming anytime soon.   Hopefully, Round 2 can get it back on the schedule in the future.

And in the even better news column, the Enterprise Collection should be shipping in a week or two.
