From now on, limited by our limited energy, we made a difficult decision. We decided to stop selling Thor pellet molds, and fully developed and manufactured high-precision FX hybrid slug molds. We will launch a solution to the barrel and Slug bullet matching scheme
For all customers who have already paid, we will mail the mold within 2~3 days. All the orders left before will be resolved. Thank you."

Halo's anyone?

I got my Thor pellet die a couple weeks before they went off line. That is approaching three months ago.

If you paid via PayPal I’d file the claim and get my money back now. PayPal will take money from their account but I don’t know what happens if they emptied the account and their backup payment method also goes off line.

I have received several messages from AGN members stating that ThorMolds was imprisoned by the Chinese government. While I have no definitive proof, I can tell you that ThorMolds disappeared shortly after the giveaway events and has been completely unresponsive to all communications.

Hello John, The message I believe you may have received from "rom2021" is something I am critical of, and here is my answer and warning for the fellow forum members, because

That's preposterous, Absolutely Unbelievable. How stupid can the mold makers be? Here is the context. FX Hybrid is a registered trademark of FX airguns, Hybrid or the hollow cavity slug is a Patented design by Hossack Michael. And Corbin has the right to the design of the tooling. So if someone purchases Corbin tooling then the owner of the die is exempted and has immunity from prosecution as it is expected that the die is to be used for personal use and not as a commercial tool to make copies in the first place that may harm the interests of parties such as FX, RMR or Michael H.. In ways such as copying the trade names for marketing. Unless there is an innovation such as a plastic BB or Steel BB in the core ( which some manufacturers use ).

After working with FX I can say that the legal ramifications could be massive (BRK ghost case), unless its a Chinese origin product with shady operations. Thus I find it unbelievable on how the buyers of such tools would navigate the Intellectual property rights and legal aspects of the original creator.

Thanks Ken.
