Question Whatever happened to GIODI WARBIRDS???

Giodi released the 1/72 Sukhoi Su-34 Strike Flanker some months ago, and announced the F-22 Raptor (first prototype?)and the Su-27 in PLAAF colours.

after I wrote to them pointing out that the PLAAF doesn't seem to have used the blue/white camouflage of the Russian Air Force on their Su-27s, they humbly acknowledged that their sample was not accurate....and would be "soon released".

BUT, to my dismay, they pulled all three models (the Su-34, Su-27 and F-22) out of the "official" website (www.chinamxw.com). Probably they didn't do very well with the Strike Flanker and decided to close down?!?? Like Justin pointed out, they probably should have started with a much more popular airframe (like the -27 instead of the -34!) to boost sales!

Anyone has an idea if they are still around
