I doubt it too, unless what he is suggesting is that maybe BB is going to get licnesing for their models, which I seriously doubt will happen. Anyways, I've too heard rumors of some more BB500 releases till the end of the year.

A rumour is exactly that - when and if it happens then we'll know - as it happens I think Goldy's comments are particularly apt - no disagreement with them at all.

I think though it is going to be a mess and whilst everything is kept in limbo rumours will abound. And I am sure many of them will be presented as facts.

Personally I liked the old BigBird 1:500 and I wish they had continued but too late now I believe - but then that may only be a rumour!

Star Jets. I want Star Jets to come back. BB500 was a good replacement but not enough moulds for them to work with.

Starjets are back, under the name 5Stars, I know it's not the same thing, but the few models they made are great (not all), time will tell about it....
