Mini Art's next Valentine
Just in case you didn't know, Mini Art has got a great little Valentine kit, and they are running hard with it to give us as many different variations as they can. Their latest little kit is thier Mk III version released earlier as a straight British version. But they are doing the by now very popular idea of releasing it as a captured German vehicle with a new decal sheet with a German cross on it . The one good thing about it is that there are also marking options for other non German vehicles in the box . So even if you are not all that wild about the Beute Panzer concept, you still get a real nice kit with diffrent options, Plus of course those kewl little German DAK figures to use somewhere else if you want.

I hear you on that one. Unfortunately, it is quite often not the manufacturer that gives us some of the outrageous prices, but the importer that add their pound of flesh. Or our wonderful Governments that add all sorts of wonderful taxes that are the real culprit behind this.

Re: Mini Art's next Valentine
i agree with that only to a degree
the main part of a kit has to reflect the costs in initial r&d and tooling costs......and packaging/transport...........styrene is cheap
but the price that some companies charge is crazy......hasegawa is one of the worst.....insane prices for old tool kits punted out with a new decal sheet
