From the info that I have received MLM should be up and running sometime in November.

What are you wanting to start?

Hey Jason,

I am looking to do some Canadian Leo's. I have actually been reading alot of your posts here and other sites for info.

Really enjoy looking at some of your builds. Beautiful work. A real inspiration.

Jeff, thanks for your comments. Have fun with the Leopard projects.

Peter, according to the MLM site there should be a Grizzly AVGP conversion coming up and I have seen an excellent master for a Coyote Recce conversion that will hopefully come out early in 2007.

I can say for sure that there is a AVGP Grizzly conversion coming, as I know the builder that made the masters for the conversion, and actually won gold with it in Modern Armor at this past weekend's show, MMM 2006 in Halifax, NS.

Pictures to follow, as soon as I get them posted up!!!

A couple things I'll be working on for masters this winter will be an uparmoured Leo C2 (C2A1) conversion and a proper M113 TUA conversion, which will then probably be re-done for a future LAV-III TUA set once the Trumpeter and/or Dragon Strykers materialize. Priority will be the Leo C2A1 as they are so much in the news right now.
Stock up on Revell-Germany Leo 1A5's if you can find 'em! Some rumblings about Leopard farm implements too...
As for when things will be available from the source, I'm sure Jeep will let us know when he's up and running again. Patience is the key, I know I've got enough projects to work on until then!

Cheers,
Jim

This morning, JP has updated his site with a note that he will be opening in February 2007. He has also uploaded descriptions and some pictures of upcoming products. Hurrah! Just as my credit card will be paid off from Christmas!
As stood before, he is not monitoring his MLM email so we'll have to wait. http://www.mapleleafmodels.com/

Cheers!
Mike
