It falls on deaf ears to recommend anything to Dragon

Response to Re: A bit of an exaggeration . . .

They don't fix things (at least in a reasonable way). They might improve one detail in a subsequent variant kit, but then they usually introduce new errors. It is maddening too when they come out with some corrected parts but then omit good parts from the subsequent kits and reintroduce older/poorer parts. A detail will be corrected only to have the issue reemerge in the future when the new part isnt re-used. Aparently a lot of people provide a lot of time, information and assistance to Dragon, but the product result is still a let down or even an embarassment. At least Eduard ponied up to the FUBAR canopy in their new Bf. 109 kit, while Dragon just blasts critics via their puppet online blog.

If they really cared they would sit down and make kits from scratch instead of trying to re use as many parts as possible (to save money) while raising the cost of their kits (to make more money) to unreasonable levels considering often the overall quality is mediocre. As in the STZ kit, the buildability issues stem largely from re using so much of existing kits (T-34/85, model 1940, etc.) and not saying ok this is a unique tank and we can't re use so much...
