Should we stop buildinb D-day dioramas, maybe modelspace should drop Yamato its a war grave after all, its nonsense “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

It may be true but its not funny, the Mail only continues because people read, and its the main sorce of none model related posts on this site “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

Seems your keen to shoot the messenger rather than content of the storyline being reported, in this instance by British Vet's but I don't hear you sounding off at them

One thing not mentioned is the change in public opinion over the years. DM will be DM and Airfix will produce what they think will sell. Take a look at the pic of an Airfix kit below and as far as I know (I will stand corrected) nobody complained about it. The difference being that the kit shown below is designated as a desert outpost, but it is obviously the remains of a house. Just my opinion/observation but it just looks like the change in the way people see things these days.
