Korber Models

Recently building kits from Korber Models have shown up on eBay.
Anyone have any experience with these styrene kits?
They are listed as G-Scale. Anyone know if they are 1/32, 1/24 or what ?
Ralph

They are closer to 1/22 - 1/24, they are very durable when put togethter

Thank you, Victor.
Just what I needed to know.
Just bought two.

Brian,
Click on any of the kits at the Just Trains page and it goes to a “holding” page with Bikini models.
I guess Korber is out of business. Probably why they are showing up on eBay.
Too bad.
I found the MLS post where Greg says they were purchased by Just Trains. As they are a retailer, they probably just purchased the inventory.
Too late to call Just Trains until Monday.
If nobody bought the molds, when the available kits are gone, that’s it.

Ralph,

Yeah, I saw that. Just Trains bought the Korber molds and is producing the kits. They might be the ones selling them on eBay but I have not checked that out yet. I think Just Trains is linking their website to the original Korber site which is now defunct. The links used to work. Not good planning on Just Trains part.

I see they have an ad in GRW’s.
Prices in the ad are a bit lower then the prices shown on the web-site.
