Response to Why does Dragon elicit such antagonism?

It was in response to comments such as:

"This is almost an insult from Dragon!"

"Freddy must have his head up his a**!"

There are plenty of kits I have no interest in building, such as the UM train kits, or 90% of ACE artillery kits. But I don't complain at UM when they do this, complaining is stupid.

This is one kit I was secretly hoping would be released in 1:72, I wasn't expecting it to really be released, and I'm very grateful that it was. Give me this over a Panzer IV any day.

Manufacturers release kits they think will sell. If you don't want that particular kit you don't have to buy it.

From Dragon we've had brand new tools of LVTs, Churchill, two Japanese tanks, excellent Panzer IV F/G kits, superb early Tigers and more.

I regularly criticise Dragon for their ridiculous delay in releasing the SU-85 and Sturmtiger with Zimmerit kits.

I've no interest in their Horch kits, or their SdKfz 221/222 packs and won't buy them. But I don't insult them over it. I also have no interest in figure kits even though many here do.

If you like them, buy them, if not, don't. Not everything that Dragon, or any other manufacturer, releases will be to your tastes. Just accept it. Comments like those made here only reflect badly on the poster.

In reality, Dragon aren't that interested in comments from online forums, they're interested in how well the kits sell - not just in the kit line but in the pre-built line.
