Well, Dave Bighia, who ran Yanks, decided that casting resin parts
wasn't really what he wanted to do. He wanted to build models. He
currently has a contract model building company building models for
others. He has advertised in magazines like Military History Quarterly
and others. He appears to be doing fairly well.
As to Scotia, well they do, indeed, have the moulds and I can't for the
life of me imagine why he bought them just to close up shop a couple of
months later.
