Re: It's time for Hobby Master to enter the 'heavy metal' zone!!

I never quite understood why the tank and airplane people can't agree on a scale. You get airplanes in 1/48, but Corgi makes a huge group of tanks in 1/50. And the airplane people build 1/32 scale models and the tank people build 'em in 1/35. What's up? Didn't anybody have a conference before they started all this?

You make an excellent point, Sky. Why can’t manufacturers get their ever-lovin’ act together and produce just one scale? Personally, I’d love to see Hobby Master pursue 1/32 tanks to compliment FOV’s collection. FOV tanks are extremely popular, and they corner a wider market share, than, say, Dragon.

Dragon’s 1/35 tanks are popular, too, don’t get me wrong. But if you were to put it to a vote, 1/32 would prevail (me thinks).
 

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.
