I'm sure I read some years ago that there had been more kit versions of the Tiger tank than any other subject. Now we have more! Sorry Patrick, but I can't get excited over this when there are so many other subjects which have not been covered nearly so well - I'm sure we all have a list of things we'd like to see.
I get just as unexcited when I see yet another Spitfire, Bf109, Sherman ..... the list goes on, so I'm not just picking on this offering. I shouldn't really complain though. The modelling world has more variety than ever before to offer. It's just annoying when I see a 'new' version of something we can already buy dozens of, in all the different scales and levels of quality. Why is this one going to be different from, or better than, say, the
Tamiya version? Once they're built and painted, who would be able to point out which was which in a
display case?
Sorry Patrick! Rant over. I daresay the reason the manufacturers keep churning out the same stuff over and over again is that people buy it - and that's what they're in business for, and that's what keeps our hobby going.
