    wish Castaway would get back to producing them.
    Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.

    ^I hope I'm not speaking out of turn here, but since David and Jason haven't been posting as much, I thought I'd relate the abbreviated version.

    An unscrupulous business partner royally screwed Cast-A-Way out of their molds, and they have no recourse to get them back. This same person also railroaded several other upstart toy companies/studios. He's a real scum bag.

    So unfortunately, the guys can't make those fine, fine figures anymore.

    I hope that changes one day. I'd love to see Dave and Jason riding this retro-wave of goodies. They helped pioneer this movement, and it's beyond criminal that they aren't getting to reap the benefits of their hard work.

    Is there any way to ARREST said scum bag??? And toss him into a nice deep hole??? Like twenty feet deep???? Without any air bags???

    It really sucks that Dave and Jason were screwed over so very badly by this doofus. They really didn't deserve it.

    Well, the guy was the go-between with Chinese factories. Any legal action would probably go nowhere, and would only cost the guys a ton of money.

    It's just awful. Karma will one day give that man one serious life wedgie.

    Any chance of new molds being made? At all?

    Based on my business dealings with China manufacturers in the past, there is no hope of legal recourse without some divine intervention...or a lot of money. Of course the USD is losing it's value against quite a few currencies. Best to use GBP.

    Hope the company is still afloat and best in a speedy recovery.
