I am sorry to tell you that Barry Walby, owner of MMS passed away at the end of February. I learned of this today from the Wargamers Forum.
Barry designed, cast and sold a very fine range of 20mm tanks, trucks, guns and infantry under the brand name 'MMS'. Several members of the club knew him well from meeting him at Salute and other shows and enjoyed great banter with him. Some years ago he attended a couple of our club events.
He was a lovely chap - understanding very well the needs of gamers for quality and durable models.
He shut MMS down in 2018, retiring to France telling me he wanted to enjoy his cognac and cigars!
A great bloke!
