Saw these mentioned on Facebook today and figured I'd spread the word.

To update and then immediately thread drift:
     Current plans are to run these cars for PC by the end of the year.  (picture scrounged from someone's blog post on the 2022 Valley Forge RPM)





...and also: an HO G41a is in the works.



My mother says these cars are cute, so there's that.

Are these the first 3D printed fully assembled models?

Huh, I don't know.  But whatever the specifics are of the business model that TJ has come up with, I hope they're sustainable (he actually makes some money and doesn't burn out) - because good golly is it great to see someone making models in a niche that no one has attempted before (the Railworks F41a's don't count).
