This week Norscot finally got a positive result in the protracted case around their Chinese manufacturer of scale models. If everything goes according to the sentence imposed Norscot has the possibilities to deliver its already produced scale models and owns all the necessary molds to allow the long-awaited new models to be able to make by a new producer.
Let us hope that there can be placed a big fat point behind the long wait for new Caterpillar scale models. Here is the official text:

Announcement from Norscot on Tuesday 31st Jan 2012.
We are pleased to report important progress toward resuming the normal availability of Norscot Scale Models. As a result of a favorable court ruling handed down on January 31 in Hong Kong, we are planning for the late February release of Norscot die-cast models and tools that have been held by our contract manufacturer in China. Upon release of this material, it will be transferred to a new factory and shipping point. We anticipate the transfer of materials to be completed and verified by mid-March, and the shipments of some items to resume later that month from Hong Kong.
We will keep you informed as additional information becomes available.
Sincerely, Norscot Group, Inc.
