I vote folly. First I think the market is limited and they are already getting initial competition from Skybow. Who will be next? I just don't think the crossover with the AC guys (which is something they might be banking on) will pay off. You can only squeeze so much out of the modeler in terms of money, that I feel most current 1/35ers will stay the course consistent with their chosen scale. Now newbies and younger modelers might be the target group of mind, especially if they haven't quite gotten into 1/35 yet. This would make them more suseptible to 1/48. IMHO
