I am very impressed. I seem to remember someone on another forum calling your stuff something like "toy junk". I wonder how their crow tastes?

Worker and Tobi  -

Assuming that I manage to get the Romfell this month (and that depends upon how hard the US Post feels like working in the next few weeks), and assuming that I send the Romfell right out for production, then the caster will have the vehicle in hand by January.

Now, the Ehrhardt took a very long time. In fact the caster admitted he'd dropped the ball on it - they had it for something like three months before they got around to casting/molding. However, normally he's pretty quick (by industry standards) so if I had to guess, I'd assume the prototype by February...

So I think we can look at February as the earliest we might realistically see it. It may be possible that they'd work extra fast and have it done by January (stranger things have happened), but I don't want to make promises, as the casting process for resin is relatively slow (they have a huge order queue, and only so many machines).

Around that time we might very well also see the -other- new vehicle in the range, which I will be posting about shortly;) (This one wasn't done by Tobi, but by another LAF member for the Build Something contest.) I believe Herr Tobsen will be working on something decidedly -different- for his next commission with me. (*steeples fingertips insidiously*)
