There is a strong indication that Wingnut Wings has ceased trading.

Needless to say, if this is true, it is a horrible loss to the hobby!

There is a fairly direct connection to one of the affected employees, so it seems to be an 8 or 9 on the reliability scale.

I’ll be able to pay off my house with the value of my WnW stash!

Seriously hope that’s wrong but in these time where we are seeing large nationals going to the wall it is easily possible.

If you look on the WnW website it says they are closed for the duration of the Covid 19 epidemic but will reopen after the Government all clear:-

I have some friends in New Zealand and they say the lockdown over there due to COIVD 19 is REALLY strict.

I truly hope it’s all a mad rumor. The thread is over on FB. A past employee has weighed in, and says he’s not surprised.

I guess all we can do is wait and see. If it IS real, I hope they reevaluate.
