Paul Fisher lost everything in his shop, home and escaped with just the clothes on his back. Modelers all over the world have been sending their kits to Paul for use in making new molds. His Airplane ( check out his Bugatti aircraft if You get a chance) and Automotive subjects have become highly desired world over. The was a Go Fund me account for Paul and his fans filled it with more than 10 times what he had asked for. I built a Ferrari 312 from Fisher models that was quite nice. I am sure if Mark Palanz of M&S had Paul pour his work or not, although I have heard from reliable sources that some of them will be back in limited availability. I lost my best friend from High School, David Paul Brown as the result of the "Camp" fire. He was one of the best Guitarist of all time, right these with the likes of John McLaughlin. It was indeed a very sad day! Look forward to more resin from Fisher Models and M&S Hobbies check Mark and his beautiful wife's website for all auto modeling resources, if you dont see what you want Mark can usually get it! LINK www.mshobbies.com/ He has a ton of Racing accessories that can be hard to find else where...and that's what I know on the subject..LoL ! Chris

Chris I hope Paul is able to put some of his kits back into production. I had finally decided to give myself his Sunoco Ferrari 512M for Christmas when the fire happened. A friend has the Bugatti airplane kit and it’s absolutely amazing. Ben

Chris, do you know what kits Paul might want/need to replicate? I have a few unbuilt that I could provide. I, too, was about to treat myself to a couple more of his excellent kits.

Brian, here is his FB page, ask him if there is any he hasnt gotten yet, I believe the cost of silicone mold material has made it slow going but I had heard he did get a majority of the popular Vehicle kits already. Wish him a Happy Birthday it was on July 15 !! www.facebook.com/paul.fisher.7505 Chris

Thanks, Chris, I had already e-mailed him! He says house first, then models. House is about a year out so we'll have to be patient. At least there's hope!
