A sad day when that happened.Even sadder to have to watch (pics were all over facebook at the time) thousands of moulds being thrown away to the garbagge!It is the end of an era!

The end of an era indeed, and the amazing story of how the owner of a small modeling shop in Belgium became a major manufacturer in the hobby world and a creative inspiration to many. An unassuming modest person with a democratic no-nonsense approach to military modeling, François made the hobby affordable to many of us. But look on the bright side fellows, many of his busts and figures, amongst them real little gems, are still available at a fair price!

Why destroy the moulds, not sell them?

Molds wear out with repeated casting. New molds can always be poured as long as the masters aren't damaged.
Now, if the masters were being thrown out - that's much different.
