June 2022 Newsletter
Greetings!

Welcome to your Fire Replicas June Newsletter! I hope this month's update finds you healthy as we navigate this changing world in which we live.

We're busier than ever here...having just received our first shipment following CNY. Shipping continues to be astronomically expensive compared to just a few years ago, with sporadic and unreliable lead times. Oh, let's not forget that every pallet we receive tends to be speared by a sleeping (or careless) forklift driver...adding to the frustration. But these are the times in which we live...and like all of you I'm sure, we continue to do our best to make adjustments.
The FDNY KME Engines and Mack R Rescues will be shipping in the upcoming week, so if you have one on order, keep an eye on your inbox for a shipping notification!

It's tradeshow season! And that means we will be traveling nearly then entire month of June. We're thankful that the shows are running this year...but June is going to be crazy!

June 9-12 - ATHS National Convention and Truck Show in Springfield, IL
June 17-18 - ATCA National Show in Macungie, PA

So if you're attending either of these shows, come find us!

This month's releases are going to be quite popular and we are excited about the lineup. Our goal is to stay on schedule this month despite our travels. So if you leave us a message or send us an email, thank you in advance for your patience as we get back to you. See below for the launch dates in June!

If you're a member of the "Emergency! Only" group, we're getting close to the completion of the Ward LaFrance and Crown Engine 51 models. So stay tuned. If you're not a member, and would like to be kept informed about all things LA County, sign up here!

Check out our Low Stock category for some museum grade replicas you may have overlooked...and our Ebay retailer for any Sold Out items you may have missed..

Thank you again for being part of the elite group of Fire Replicas collectors. We hope each of you has a great beginning to your Summer!
