GrahamF Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Still at least they're not just talking about the kit, there is stuff happening and it looks like hard work. Good luck them to them and they deserve to do well. I had a good look at their master fuselage parts last year [ which are incorporated in their metal moulds] and they looked excellent.

KenLawrence Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Greetings, It has been a long time since I visited this site. I am shocked, shocked to hear that the MPM Tempests are not out yet. How many years has it been now? Someone said "Spring", but did not specify the year? A large number of people had bad things to say about me about this subject, but this all simply proves that I know my MpM. As unpleasant as they can be sometimes, facts are still facts. As someone who experienced long delays in projects with them, I sympathize with you. Merry Christmas, Ken Lawrence alaninaustria 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrbrdmech Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Ken Lawrence, I don't see a positive point to your post. Just seems like someone throwing stones. I'm disappointed in the way you've handled this and I don't mind waiting for the Special Hobby Tempest. I'll show my support for them with my wallet. -Shane DougN, D Bellis and Jolly Roger 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamF Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Me too, producing kits is hard work, not all companies have access to endless amounts of credit to chuck at a project to speed it along, it sometimes takes time and energy to avoid that trap .

JamesHatch Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Pretty shoddy attitude Ken. Kagemusha, wrbrdmech, Jolly Roger and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunwinglow Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I can wait. I'm a dozen kits behind already, so what with those, and impending new releases to add to the list, I'll be just happy when it does arrive. MikeC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenLawrence Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Look at the lineup of those who "like" this post. They have been wrong about this MpM project coming to market for years now. When I originally stated that this project would take a very long time, some people got all over me and our kit of the Tempest. Well, I had lots of unpleasant experience with them on 4 projects. Unauthorized changes to my masters, i.e. the spinner on the Macchi C.202 was completely changed and wrong. The pebbly surface on the 202 and 205 was their doing. 18 month late on the 1:48 C.200 kit. The list goes on and on. So if I have a "shoddy attitude" toward them, there is complete justification for it. If, and I do mean if, they bring out the Tempest kits, well good for all of you who have been waiting and waiting for them. We sold out of ours and for that, I thank all of the great modelers who do support PCM and me. Merry Christmas to all and to all a Good Night!
