I think it really boils down to economics. There probably just isn't
the same market for WW1 kits as there is for WW2. The older model
companies just aren't going to take risks; that's why Eduard is filling
a niche market. The older companies figure they can sell many more
thousands of FW-190s than an entire WW1 line of kits. Face it, we're
the [small] elite of the hobby :-)
