That's pretty much what I meant. Short run, high quality printing is expensive. That'll be around A$30 which is 50% more than a Model Alliance sheet which would already have Aussie modellers whinging.

OTOH the Eduard kits would include etched brass and (maybe) masks and be a good deal more accurate.
 
I wish him *well* and hope he has great success, but I still think that we all need to brace ourselves to buy expensive decals if we expect him to produce anything out of the ordinary (and survive financially!)
