Not trying to be political here, just passing on some actual news. My pre-order of the Hobby Boss HMS Lord Clive kit was cancelled by Squadron. Here is the text from the email Brandon Lowe sent:

Hello, (this is going out to multiple customers at once)

I am very sorry that I have to send this email, but due to current circumstances (yes, I am talking about tariffs) we are not sure when or if we will be able to get this HMS Lord Clive kit. Hobby intends to release it, and we intend to stock it... BUT until further notice, we will not be accepting preorders for this kit and we have canceled all current preorders for it. I really hope that at some point in the future we can get this kit as I was looking forward to it myself.

If you prepaid for the kit, your payment has been refunded. If you ordered other items along with it that are now in stock, those items will be split off of the order and shipped out tomorrow.

If you did not prepay for the kit, and ordered other items that are now in stock - please place a new order for those in stock items if you still want them.

Again, I am very sorry about this - this is the first time I have ever not been able to fulfill preorders.... we are going to work preorders in the future a little differently in such a way that perhaps this won't happen again.

Thank you,
Brandon Lowe
