Reply to "With MTH closing there will be a tremendous loss of variety (and MTH engines that we regret selling)"

Unless MTH has sole legal title in China to the tooling, it seems more likely that the factories that have the tooling will approach American vendors at some point about using the tooling that they have their possession.  Why would Lionel purchase tooling at market rates now,  when they potentially can just contract with whoever owns legal title once the dust has settled,  and the tooling is of minimum value once MTH is gone?  If MTH is dissolved, unless Mike Wolf personally has legal title, the tooling is essentially abandoned or owned by the factory, or at least that's one possible scenario.
