Looks like this company purchased the remaining assets of Morestone, Modern Products and Budgie Toys, and has updated the old tools and is beginning to release them. Apparently they've been a cottage industry in South England for some time making copies of Dinky and Corgi among others, and a handful of older large scale Morestone models. It appears the two VWs, the Ambulance and the Wolseley Police car are already out there!

A little bit pricey, but its good that they continue to be making them in England. Too many makers have bought out old and defunct brands (diecast and other) and basically just used the name to slap on cheap junk, typically coming from the Far East.

The Wolseley kit looks interesting, but only 500 to be produced. :thumbup:

From original castings... Playing Mantis did the same thing with a stash of Topper Deuce Coupes....500 examples made from original parts except wheels. I remember when they were sold through the JL Collector Club.
