| Re: New Admiral Items listed
| Although, I also have three of Admiral releases, I have to disagree completely with tankguy assessment.
They are on cruder side, not much better than Matchbox models (maybe even worse) and definitely not a match for anything from Dragon or Hobby Master. I'm not impressed by metal content if comes at expense of finesse exhibited by HM and Dragon models. Fit and finish also lags behind the big Two.
Honestly, I wouldn't have bought a single Admiral model if it wasn't for the fact that Admiral was (maybe still is), a small US-based company.

Sergey | Completely agree. I own Admiral's first Panzer, and though it's a nice change from Dragon's Tigers and the like, Admiral doesn't compete in the least with Dragon's and Hobby Master's detail, accuracy or refinement. |

It isn't faith that makes good science, Mr. Klaatu, it's curiosity. Sit down, please. There are several thousand questions I'd like to ask you.
