While we have not heard from Miniart in sometime, it seems they are doing fine and should be back up and running again soon.

Not unlike a movement of factories in the Great Patriotic war. Nicely done. Looking forward to the new releases.

Craziness. I just received an ACE kit made in Ukraine through a Ukrainian web store. There are a few other companies there too; ICM off the top of my head. Wonder how they are faring.

Glad to hear that Miniart at least wasn't seriously impacted in the way other non-model companies have been.

Glad to hear that your company is able to relocate safely and with all your people. Look foward to when you are completely up and running and producing those outstanding kits.

Great news, glad to hear everything is okay. Troubling times indeed. Anticipating what you release now you are once again in production. Currently just converting your Afrika Korp's shirtless tankers into PT Boat crew. I'd love to see your take on something like this.

I'll Second that! Any and all Naval figures would be welcomed, particularly USN PT crewmen. Really glad that you're all okay and back up and running. Al
