Wow, I had no idea!
MTH will certainly become a hobby leader with these two new developments. And I’m sure MTH’s clever ideas will be licensed by others in the hobby, since no one will want to be left out of these impressive developments.
Maybe MTH is what the hobby has been needing, and we’ve all been concerned over their legal maneuvering and have overlooked the hobby advances they’ve been making.
Rivet Counter, why didn’t you go into more details with your posts and let us know what MTH has been up to when they weren’t having meetings with their lawyers?
And to pull this topic back out of the MTH quagmire … did anyone at the train show happen to talk with MR and ask them about their new DVD test marketing venture?
I also heard through a friend that MTH is planning to release an exploding box car in HO, of course Mike Wolf is sueing the people who own the remaining assets in tyco molds because Mike Wolf came up with the idea for an HO scale exploding boxcar in 1957 he has the documents to prove it!
Stuckarmchairing, did you read Joe’s last post…the one right before yours…where he expressed a hope and desire to EXTRICATE this post from the Mondo Train Hype?
I don’t know if you have seen this one already, I post it anyway. Downloadable sounds, I love it!
