We (A and H Hobbies) found out today that the distributor we get our Life-Like products from has been told by Walthers that they(our distributor) may no longer sell/take orders for Life-Like products after Aug 15th. Walthers is going to be the SOLE distributor of Life-Like products, so if you want anything you HAVE to buy it from them.........if I recall right the first order you place with them has to be a minimim of $2500 with "X" amount of items being Walthers brand. So places that just sell slot cars may be up the creek when it comes to Life-Like racing..........

Perhaps, you folks who run slotcar based shops shouls all get in touch with Walthers, and let them know about your 'plight'. It could help them change that policy.
