I've been away a while but we just got moved into our new shop so I thought I would touch base w/the fine group of modlers here to see what sort of structure you'd like to see us do next in O Scale. As you know, we tend to sway to the "wrong side of the tracks" w/liquor stores, pawn shops and tattoo parlors, but I'm open to any and all ideas for our next O scale kit. What would you like to see us do next?

Here's an alternate version of our last O scale kit, Patterson's Hardware. It's shown here as Luci's Tattoo Emporium.






Thanks much, I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Randy, I'd like to see taller retail type buildings that could be used on the city street. The Chop Suey building from the HO Blair #1 would make an interesting structure. Some 3 story buildings (or even 4 if it makes sense from a business proposition) like some of the hotels you've done but with retail downstairs and awnings might be interesting. Good to hear you're thinking about more O scale.

More industries would definitely be nice Randy.  Things like, Freight buildings, granaries, and anything related to junk yards would sell quite well.  the one thing I've noticed about O gauge structures that are commercially available is that they tend to forget about industry.  Now I know O gauge is for the modeler that likes to run trains more than switching (but there are plenty of modelers who are into O and like switching cars in factories, and other industries).

Thanks guys, I appreciate the input! Guguisberg is on hold for now, but i hope to have something new in the next 60 days.

 

For those that bought the Hardware store kit, check your set of signs. Many of the first batch had both sets of signs on the same sheet (Hardware/Tattoo). If not, let me know & I'll send you a set.

 

Our Boobie Hatch XXX version of our Trackside Tavern kit will be out of production soon. This one is only available direct. Cheers!
