Unfortunately it looks like lion toys are the first model manufacturer to fall victim to the recession.. http://uden.kliknieuws.nl/nieuws/99728/lion-toys-in-uden-faillietBest wishes to all their staff.

No one likes to see company's close and people loose their jobs, but I can`t say I`m surprised.
They are not exactly YCC or TWH when it comes to detail or quality are they? just cheap and cheerful basic models.

Yeah i was looking forward to them developing the faymonville range further, i'm sick of the same old nootebooms and goldhofers coming with every model.
