Well, we've seen this before. The brand and tooling are too valuable to junk, so someone will make something out of them. Probably the assets will be acquired by someone like Revell-Monogram -- who, if they follow past practice, wherever a subject is duplicated within their own catalog, will select the least accurate moldings to continue in production.
