The Model Stash

Hi, Everyone! The Treksphere.com blog published a nice interview with Round 2's senior designer and brand manager Jamie Hood.  He's the one at Round 2 who helps bring back the classic AMT, MPC, and Polar Lights sci-fi, fantasy, and genre kits, and he's the champion for all the great, newly-tooled kits that have been coming out for years now. In the article, Jamie talks about Star Trek: Discovery, issues related to updating older models for re-release, the success of their 1:350 line of Star Trek kits, possible new models and more varied scales, and hopes for a better 2019 holiday season in the brick-and-mortar retail space. It's a good read.  Check out the link for the article: https://treksphere.com/merchandise/charting-a-course-round-2-models-jamie-hood-discusses-discovery-perfecting-the-350-art-and-future-directions-for-star-trek-modeling/ .
