I just saw this in the N scale forum: http://www.trainboard.com/grapevine/showthread.php?t=110674 Fox Valley Models will be making Z and Nn3 metal wheelsets for MT trucks. FVM makes the best N scale metal wheels out there so I expect these new Z wheels to be just as nice.
I am checking on this as I too know how popular they will be. Thanks for each of you who pointed it out and sending me the links. We will see!
I emailed FVM about a year or 2 ago, after reading one of Chris's post on Railwire about their N Scale wheels, in hopes they would produce Z Scale for us. I never got a reply, but someone else must have gotten through to them. I have hundreds of trucks I want to convert to metal wheels, so I hope they are available in GIGA BULK PACKS! I just looked... nothing about them on the FVM site yet.
Good news... I should have these very soon and on the web even sooner. If you are looking to order some, please email me so I can predict the quantity better. I don't want to be short and make anyone wait for a second shipment. Please give me a heads-up! Prices and info will be on my website (http://www.zscalemonster.com/) in the next 24 hours and they are sold in a 12 pack and a 100 pack. Please go to my website if you don't already know my email address: http://www.zscalemonster.com/contact.htm
Chris, The Bowser are going to be a while yet. They need to be packaged for retail sale and they are beginning to work on the issue. I never like to guess dates with Bowser as they are all over the place... so I will not. Unless something unusual happens suddenly it will be a while!
well, i put in my request for a bulk pack of wheels. this is turning out to be a good summer!! dave f.
