Does anyone know what happened to this company? They had some awesome stuff announced to be released, but then the seem to just drop off the map. Their full resin Lee and Grant looked great, and the British and US North Africa Shermans ( M4A1s) with the initial VVS suspension( like the one on the M-3) and direct vision slot hulls seemed like a dream come true. These sounded like they would be to die (or Kill) for. All of these kits were said to be incredible, and accurate, so I'm trying to find out if these are still coming out, or is they closed up shop.

Here's their email address : [email protected] I got this off a review on Missing Lynx. They used to have their products with photo's hosted on an IPMS site, I thought it was IPMS Ottawa, but it's not there anymore.

Sid is still out there and has a number of great items available. You just have to be patient as he, like most of us, has to balance small business with primary employment.

ABM is a lady to get. I got the M3 Lee at Amps 2001, and was missing parts and there was alot of other pissed off customers over at ML with the same problem as I. I met up with Sid at AMPS 2002 and got my missing pieces, but didnt buy anything since I wasn't interested in what he had ATM. I know this much...he sold out quickly of what he brought with him.

His stuff is outstanding, but his busniess practicies aren't the best in the world. Your best bet is to buy the Stuff at the AMPS Nationals or what ever other shows he does since hes out of canada and makes sure you have everything before leaving for the day
