Even more DS2 stuff to be released at the same time as Schoon's stuff -
including a bridgelayer (made that one in a burst of creative energy
over the
weekend).

Release is scheduled for the Canterbury Conquest show here in the UK on
May
13th. Prices are likely to be around UK£0.40 for the Requin and
UK£1.00 for
the (unnamed) new model - a slight premium for this one because it's
multipart
and therefore a) requires more real estate in the mould than a single
piece
model, and b) there are more parts to go wrong and therefore casting
each
example will on average take longer. These translate to around US$0.65
and
US$1.60 respectively - a bargain, I'm sure you'd agree !
