J. LLoyd International now owns the HAWK trademark. Their ad in the toy trade mags stated that they intend to release the Weird-Ohs, Frantics and Silly Surfer lines using, as Mega1 stated, the original box art. The company produces plastic toys, so they have the equipment to produce the kits, but I don't know if they own the tools...

Tower Hobbies has availability of some of the kits listed as "In Stock" and others listed as "Late February", but from what I've read this seems to be a complete list of which kits are being re-released:

I remember picking up the Beach Girl and Surfer Dude a few years ago in Florida. I built them for my neighbor and covered the base with sand. Great kits!
