An ode to modeling (in haiku)

Farewell Tamiya

A new Dragon kit awaits

Your moulds are too old

__

Ah, Dragon Models

A sea of parts, nothing fits

Leisure lies elsewhere

__

Then there is Revell,

What? Flash? In 2015?

My search continues

__

What of Airfix then?

That way lies only madness.

Come back Tamiya!

Let's rattle the cage, crack the machine. Let 'em know who you are, shine to be seen.

Modelling is fine.
Just don't sniff the glue, my friend.

It makes you goofy...

Ah !

    Grass - Hopper - there is a saying . Yonder goes a dreamer , Yonder goes a sluffer  . But old modelers never quit , They just get better and then get better kits !

You forgot  ICM whose mantra seems to be why use 2 parts when 15 will do>(The fuselage of the 1/72 Tu Zveno comes to mind).
