MIne was in the mail today. I will look at it after work. 

[Michael in Illinois]

Received mine yesterday, already read every article. Thanks Gregg for all you do. Looking forward to 206 and the Contest edition

Finally got mine today.

I’m still waiting for 205.  Kinda wish I had snagged one at the hobby shop.

Got my issue last week and it's great to have Model Cars in my hand again. Gregg, I'm sorry you're taking heat for the delays. When you're a small company life can get in the way, I understand first hand. This was my first issue as a subscriber and it took a while to get. I'm just glad you are still putting out the best magazine for our hobby. I noticed we didn't have anything from Tim Ahlborn and he has been MIA from the Forum for a while. Anyone know if Tim is OK and if he will be doing the column for the magazine anymore?

Was the Cadillac Eldorado from the Contents page in the magazine? I was thinking it is or will be something offered by Fisher, but saw no mention of it.

Still hoping it shows up here soon. On March 21st I heard from another Ontario dweller that he had received his so I'm really hoping mine shows up this week.

I got my copy in the mail yesterday in good shape, but I wasn't that happy about the address lable glued to the lower right corner of the cover front page.
Why can't they put it on outside of the plastic bag the magazine comes in, or print it on a smaller loose paper in front of the magazine inside the plastic bag, as they did it now the cover is pretty much destroyed.

My address label was glued to the outside of the plastic wrap.

[Xingu]

Mine was also on the plastic wrap. Maybe it has to do with International shipping.

The last issue I got before this one (#204) had the address lable on the outside of the plastic bag...much better.

Well, I've pretty much given up hope of seeing issue #205. Other people in our province received theirs around March 21st. Here we are almost a month later and no magazine so I guess someone in the post office really likes MCM.

When can we expect the 205 digital issue to be please Gregg

Anyone know if this is available at any shops, mainly in the metro Phoenix area?

If I were to subscribe, would this issue be part of the deal?

Thanks,

Russ

Unfortunately most of the hobby shops that used to carry the magazine, have died too.

I got mine at a swap meet 'bout 6 weeks ago and also saw it at a hobby shop a week ago. So the #205 issues are out there.

[peter31a]

My issue of 205 finally showed up Friday. So happy and great issue. I see myself 3 times in the GSL coverage.

I heard that somewhere on social media there was a.mention about the magazine being taken over and absorbed into another. Could not find anything on Facebook or any other so I guess that it may be just a speculative rumour going around. Perhaps a publishing company has been found by the CEO editor to absorb much of the printing, distribution and accounting workload to allow Gregg to concentrate more on the magazine content and layout whilst overseeing the commercial side?
