History
John Robertson started the company, with a small loan from the Prince’s Trust, by initially purchasing a 4 by 6 foot shed which he put in the back garden of his rented flat.
John Robertson 11/03/22: ”I started sculpting all the fantasy stuff and John Grant sculpted the Sci Fi, although I sculpted the interiors and Kryomek vehicles. For resins it was me, John Grant and Rod Grant, metals Roy Eastland and Chaz Elliott.”
