If one "hangs out" on HS routinely, one will recognize the voices and come to one's own conclusions as to how dire the situation is based on what voice is being heard.

Well said Buz!
I sadly lost my copy of Brad Hansen’s “World War One in Plastic” when I moved from Florida to Virginia 22 years ago.
(“Three moves is as good as a fire” and all that)
But my memory of that book makes that statement almost flat we have it so good right now.
I don’t have an Eldon Match-Kit Albatros to directly compare, but I know an Eduard kit is light-years ahead.
Dekals, PE, kits of all sorts, ref materials – Yay!

Steve,

 

     I totally agree with you.  Although I think the guy who has the problem with the kit was "half way" joking.  However, I'm sure as more of these WINGNUT kits come out and into the hands of modelers we will soon hear more nitt-picking critiques of these kits.  I'll just defer the critics to the early volumes of WINDSOCK magazine to adjust their perspective of today's WW1 models.

 

Buz (WW1 modelers today never had it so good!)
