A great shame round 2 are moving away from figure kits but I guess all based on business traits ( what sells wins)
Just proves the point that if you see it and want it don't wait but buy it. Trouble is it all gets so expensive.
Seems the days of a certain new kit being on the shelves for "years" to allow you to save your pennies has gone. On one of th threads this week we were discussing the Airfix limited run ethos. That new 1:24 typhoon is a big want but by the time I have the funds available it will have become an eBay "buy me for a trillion pounds".
Guess the plan works for the companies but a right pain as a collector/builder.
Thanks for sharing - certainly makes you think.
"
now get more money for models
stop buying so much cat food for the nations strays
- result = hacked off cats - richer model maker". Somehow think the cats will win.
Happy modelling
