Mike,
The fact that many, if not most of us, are on extremely tight budgets is what has driven the comments here. As you mentioned, we are all seeing our hobby dollar shrink in value. Compared to the other 1/32nd kits out there, I see this as a great value considering all that is included. I always said that if someone came out with an Albie and Spad C.VII in 1/32nd then I would snatch them up and start building in that scale. However, right now it is a luxury that I can ill afford, and I am sure there are others here in the same situation.

Warren

PS I just wish that Eduard or Roden would come out with a Spad C.VII in 1/72nd

Hey Warn Nothing Personal . I agree. This IS a tough tough year off to a very rugh start. I am sorry I am not as familar with the 48/72 market as 32 but the year is being made even tougher with at least FOUR other Large scale Super releases I have always wanted in a kit due out whcih I have to start figurening out now which gas station looks the Easiest to ROB ! Opps !? Did I just post that ? Damm now I have to figure something else. I dont know like tricking wifey out of some of MY Tax return back ?


Yours Mikey

Took me a while ( Iam not used to site's with more words than pic's) But i found what U.Must is refering to : a second Offical ENCORE KIT REVIEW :

Encore 1/32 Albatros D.II 'Boelcke', previewed by Kyle Bodily

DO I have to say it ? Yes it is positive, the reveiwer likes it and basicly mimics what has already been said here only he left out any "Munster" references. (Painted the wrong way it can look like a Muster Relative I admit) But the Reveiwer in fairness gave the figure high marks for Detail and molding. In fact he put a high After Market Value on the Figure alone not to mention how Gah Gah he was over the Resin Engine.
