I saw it a few days ago.
Needless to say, nothing of the remotest interest to car modellers except for a couple of re-colours to their kiddie Lego-style snap kits.

Of course, they need to make money and it only shows that in the UK at least, model cars are a long way down the list of interest to most model makers.
A pity, as they constantly re-release ancient toolings of aircraft and militaria, but won't go back the some of their old car kits that now fetch insane money on Ebay.

That’s because such as the tooling for the Bentley Blower and many others, has reached the end of life and Hornby simply don’t have the cash for new., They had two profit earnings in 2018 and secured an £18m lifeline in June., its latest status is due shortly...
