From their website:

'White Ensign Models is back!
We are very pleased to announce that all the amazing White Ensign photo-etch detail sets are once again available to order on this website or at your local shop. These are the same great sets that Peter Hall designed and they are made in the UK just as before. The packaging is a little different, the prices are in dollars and they'll be coming from sunny Southern California in the USA but they'll still make your model look fantastic. The WEM resin kits and accessories will also be available again soon so check back often if you are interested in those. Colour Coats paints are now sold by Sovereign Hobbies. We no longer carry plastic kits or brands other than White Ensign. We do, however, intend to do our best to maintain the standard of great service that has always been a WEM hallmark.
Happy Modeling!'

That's good news, I picked up an airfix re released Halifax kit last week with the idea of just building it oob, but after a rummage through the stash, it turns out I already have a full vac canopy set and replacement guns, a bonus as the kit guns are actually short shot, what better complement to those than WEM's massive interior p/e set!

I ordered some PE from them and got it in 4 - 5 days - apparently they got to keep the SR71 in the bankruptcy sale.

Got myself the interior and exterior set on order, that lot should keep me busy for a while!
There's an added bonus on the exterior set, that it also has parts for the old matchbox/revell Halifax that's also in my stash.
