Best kits and poor fits responses

I agree with you; thanks for the note. What's interesting is that kits range from "nearly perfect" mainly in terms of good fits to "nearly impossible" in terms of bad fits. Go figure.

Only if we can get a glimpse at the profit margins that these products bring.

I believe FSM had an article that showed how models where made from the factory and so forth, I am sure they can do an updated version.

Don,

Thanks for your note. It would be very interesting to have the kit manufacturers' "kit builders" interviewed for an article or two in FSM. Sort of like letting the fox into the henhouse maybe!

As a sort of sidelight to this discussion, I remember getting a magazine where the review models were not only strictly out of the box, but also unpainted. I thought it was a really good idea.

I've often wondered this too!  Seems like a great article for FSM- interview someone from one of the big mfgs.  I have seen articles on how the molding is done, but we need an article on their quality control program- design as well as production. How about it, Matt, Aaron, Mark...  somebody?
