Well, I certainly have no idea what is going on.

However, my understanding is that micky1mo had at least two of the Sammio/Ribble moulds delivered to Tribute for Chris & Dan to work their magic on them with a view to re-launching the Sammio brand under Micky's control.

- Spyder/Pilot - "moulds just need a bit of TLC"

- Coridite/Navigator - "moulds are just fit for scrap"

In addition, the G-46 moulds "are still in storage", but there was no intention of selling this kit again without a complete overhaul of the original design.

Tribute were also working on this completely new "Sammio" design for Micky.



I guess there is no reason why the "new" kit couldn't be launched independently of the Sammio brand.

Plus I think the intention was to have one kit with a LWB & SWB version to fit Herald/Spitfire donors.

But as always, what do I know?
