Given that Trumpeters business is truly international and not just focused on a few Western countries, I’d say that’s a pretty small sample size to use in determining how popular a kit is.

Way to keep things positive Lee. I was simply trying to explain that sales of kits, for whatever reason, are closely held by pretty much all manufacturers. Just going on the fact that a kit is sold out at a few outlets or your LHS really doesn't mean much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How accurate is that information? To be honest, I have no idea... (maybe about as accurate as anything else you read on the Web). I have three sitting in my stash, but that proves exactly "nothing".
