But that wasn't the thrust of the series of posts I cited.
Didn't you find the mention of "the whole modelling world" getting upset about Sherman errors (which is false) a bit odd? Is the implication that Sherman stuff always or regularly gets fixed (also false), or that the whole world should be upset about T-34s too? And how about the statement indicating that one man's outrage about the Bronco A13 was excessive (possibly true . . .). How would him NOT getting upset about the A13 have helped the T-34 situation? Was the preference that he get just as mad - but about the T-34 instead?
That's what I was asking when I wrote: "I guess I don't understand exactly what you folks think should be happening." The two posters I quoted don't appear to like reading squawks about Shermans or obscure British tank kits. Is the thinking that if those squawks went away the T-34 situation would improve? If not, why mention it? Just mindless venting?

Kurt, nothing personal, but... please step back a bit and use the "seach" function for a few minutes. Start with "T-34" and then run "Sherman". By maybe fifteen or twenty to one, I never counted them. "The whole modelling world" is not that much of an overstatement. German tanks have their own bloody forum, eh?
Mark and Dmitry and Nick and Pavel Blinov, Pekka Toivonen, Christian Mulsow, Ian Sadler, Sergei Kirsanov etc. are among those who know what there is to know aout T-34s, and we correspond. We have factory drawings, okay? Some of us are engineers. Neskol'ko iz nas mozh' po-russki. What p***es us off is that DML knows that we have them, and doesn't want to use them. They've been invited.
They fix German tanks, like #6264, why not #6388? All it needs is a new top hull. So we suffer with our grievances, as do all modellers of Soviet armour. All three of us.
