Don't think there is an issue with anyone who wants to buy a new Laser not being able to buy one. The only problem is you won't be able to sail that Laser in any official Kirby Torch Class Association sanctioned events.
I believe that the Lasers currently sold in North America are built in the UK and that the hulls are outfitted in Rhode Island by LP.
I read this somewhere on the Internet; therefore, it must be true
Just adding my 2 cents but I really hope the torch can become a thing, i like how kirby can have control over his "car topper" and i kinda like the torch logo better.
