Valiant is now owned by someone else.  In the Midwest Wargames 
Association Newsletter recently, I saw an ad for the Valiant range of 
1/2000th sailing ships offered by a company called Division after 
Division.  The Games Quarterly gives their address as:

16710 Bradbe Road
Fisherville, KY 40023
502 267 8146 after 6pm EST

Contact:  Roger Dospil

Roger may be casting the line.	If so he MAY have the molds for the 
Starships and may not be aware of any interest in them.
