I agree with Karl. As I have said on this forum before, the folks that criticize and complain about the manufacturers of reproduction parts need to step up and make a part just once. They will see that the risks of manufacturing something is great in a dwindling market...so it's easy to turn our computers on and fire off commentary about how these guys who have done a service to the hobby need to make another run...and do what with them? Put them on their shelves and watch them collect dust. There is a thing called "return on investment" and most, not all, of these guys are good businessmen. By the way...I hope there is another run!
