Are those people at Comets sure? Because I checked the Product Enterprise website and the diecasts are still announced for September/November:

I mentioned this to the owner of a local collectors shop around my neibhourhood and as far as he knows, the items are to be produced in limited number...

At the moment, neither Forbidden Planet, not FAB Gear USA made the same announcement as Comets...

There's discussion about this in the model forums at Starship Modeller and EagleTransporter. The guy who makes the prototype models for PE (the Doctor) confirms the cancellation.

Odd that these are still listed TBA on their website...

I hope they will come out eventually. the original release date was supposed to be September 2006, but this is now TBA.

There has been some discussion on the Eagle Transporter forum about the PE SPV not selling very well which is the reason these have not been produced and they now seem to be concentrating on multiple versions of their Space 1999 Eagle instead.

It's the UK January Toy Fair soon so there may be more news at the end of this month. I'm hoping PE will make some Blake's 7 diecasts!
