I have an Promodeler FW-190D-11 and there is talk about it being an old Trimaster mold. Who is Trimaster? Are they even in business anymore?

trimaster used to be a great kit company.
They were very renown for several subjects : Me 262, Me 163, FW 190... all in 1/48th scale.
The models used to be quite expensive !
When Trimaster disappeared, the molds went to DML.
Then , they went to Revell, Italeri...
These companys worked from these kits to create new 1/72nd scale kits of great quality !
