Wisconsin ANG based in Madison/Truax Field. This unit

News and new Products Update
June, 2009
Trying times for '09.....
Fans and friends of Modern Hobbies. Guys, the last couple of months have been very trying. Many
of you have noticed the site being down, late order delivery and me as "M.I.A." in the midsts.
Unfortunately, I've had dire family matters to attend to, the web site was attacked by hackers and
it screwed up not only the site, but this caused orders to not show up at all, which meant orders
were extremely late..still trying to find many.
Modern Hobbies LLC is still here though, just need to attend to some damage control at the
moment and I'll be back up to speed with everything. Please rest assured that I don't go down
without a fight and I love a challenge and most important, I am dedicated to providing my fellow
1/72 modelers with rare, interesting resin items for your scale models. With that said, I am going to
have to tend to things right now and finish picking up the pieces, so I will not be taking new orders
at present. Instead, I will be accepting donations to help Modern Hobbies stay air-worthy and in the
dogfight. What with the tough US economic situation, higher operating costs are starting to also
affect my business. My goal is to re-invest the donation funds back into MH and purchase more
equipment; specifically a spin-casting machine.
This will increase time to market turn-around, speed shipping to you my customers, and also
decrease labor time so I can crank out more products faster! It's a win, win. If you would like to
make a donation in any amount, please click the PayPal button below. Your support is greatly
appreciated!
All previously ordered items will be shipped as usual. I anticipate being back on track in mid-May or
late June with new items, maybe some new distributors and a new partner to help me in this great
venture. Until next time...keep the radar on!
