Hello everyone, I am wondering what happened to D Corporation. They did a really nice upgraded suspension for the Academy M1151 and a conversion to turn it into an M1165. They seem to have disappeared. Did they go out of business?

Regards,

Eric

If you mean D Toys, they are now known as DVision Miniatures I've bought a bunch of their stuff on eBay here's a link to their store: http://stores.ebay.com/divisionmini?_trksid=p2047675.l2563

Shipping is free and takes a couple weeks since it is coming from Korea. BNA models from Australia also carries some of their stuff.

DToys (for some time - DVision Miniatures) and D-Corporation are two different producers. AFAIK D-Corporation is 'dead' now. But fortunatelly there is DEF Model suspension set for Academy's M1151 on the market.

D Corp = D Toys = DVision, etc., etc., etc...

They are all the same company who keeps modifying their name. Their products are pretty good though.

Thanks guys. I saw a step by step of the D Corp one and liked that it replaced both upper and lower "a" arms. I am probably just going to use the Bronco M1114 as a donor for the complete chassis.

Nope. D-Toys = DVision, but D-Corporation was a separate company, unrelated to the other two. D-Corp indeed seems to be gone now...

Too bad. Thanks Pawel. Their M1165 conversion would have been a great starting point for many M1151 conversions.

Eric
