This is more for people in the UK and Europe, but Modelzone, which sells 1/6 figures among other collectibles and Amerang, their suppliers, looks to be going into
administration. What this means for the future of 1/6 collectors in UK/mainland Europe is anybody's guess. How will it affect the prices of contest of other distributor's who get their figures from Amerang and the ripple effect it will have on others?
I get my non-sideshow figures from onesixthbruce.co.uk whoget theirs direct from china so I'm OK. Amerang seem to be safe for now, but I remember seeing their tag on the GG busts I used to get from R2Dtoys before they scarpered
I have friends who work in modelzone, so...
