"With the restructuring of our business, [Prowest] can now emerge from one of the most challenging economic periods for producers in history."
The company, based in Sonoma, Calif., has even take on a new tagline with the new spirit — "strong."
"We are 'COLT Strong,' the most consistently produced studio in the industry since 1967,” Rutherford said.
“COLT Studio group and it’s subsidiaries will continue the production of the iconic COLT, Buckshot and Olympus line of features, as well as introducing new COLT Gear toys, new private label COLT apparel and COLT Leather products and much more for 2011," he said.
