Dumas Products is closing down

[Auger]

I suppose most folks are aware of the news - as of this April 15th Dumas will be closed down.
Here is their website and official announcement https://www.dumasproducts.com/
They will be filling orders for their remaining stock until it is sold out.
I can't believe this is happening but here we are.
It would be a shame if the kits they have created, engineered and produced are lost forever. Their boats and aircraft kits have always been excellent and of types that are iconic and in
many cases that are available nowhere else.
I'm hoping to hear that someone - or some other model kit manufacturing company - might pick up from Dumas and carry on in good faith with both the community and with the good people at Dumas who worked to provide quality kits and
a bit of history. In a digital age when our kids can't be torn from their screens long enough to know whether it's day or night, raining or sunny, it's more important than ever to have alternative and meaningful activities that get them outside together.
Hoping to hear good news eventually on this but who knows. In the meantime - if there was a Dumas project you wanted to work on someday...now might be your last chance to get started.
