The latest rambling leaves me in no mind that this guy/s (whoever you are) is out of touch with reality. I always wondered what happened to Baghdad Bob after the Gulf War (rd 2). It seems he has found a home spruiking for DML based on the waffle we are presented:
I am really surprised to see how people define “bend the truth”. Many modelers come to tell me the comments I received and all feel unbelievable. What I am doing is just putting the fact in front of people. People reading my blog would have their own judgment."
My definition is almost word perfect to the dictionary meaning. As I pointed out in my last post, you arefully bend the truth as this should easily demonstrate:
The actual text from PMMS
"An issue with the body panels is that they are actually held together with large dome screws and not the round rivets depicted in the kit but this is difficult to remedy and interestingly Tamiya featured this on their 30 year old kit without the aid of current technologies."
Mr Hiroshis claim:
He asked me the progress of building the Dragon’s M2 half-track. He said the kangaroo review site said it is even worse than a 30-year-old kit, Dragon’s customers must have hard time to build the kit.
The facts are now out Mr Hiroshi. If you cannot see this as bending the truth then I'd suggest you get a new editor or a job in propaganda.
There is a world of difference between what was written and what you wrote in a continuing smear campaign of PMMS and Terry Ashley.
I'll say it slowly so you may understand. Modelling is a subjective hobby and a highly critical one amongst the mainstream modellers. DML make some of the most wondrous kits I have ever seen and have taking the idea of scale modelling to new boundaries. Regardless of how great these kits are sometimes they have small (and I do mean small) innacuracies which modelling reviewers will highlight if they notice them (usually with a simple workaround or correction); they aren't saying this kit is garbage or rubbish or 30 yrs old. They are saying. Wow, this kit is great but I did notice a couple of little points which will make it greater.
DML proved they listen with the Pz IV kits and the 251's wit hthe corrections they made. Please take the reviews for what they are worth and either rectify, ignore etc. If you believe the reviewer is factually incorrect then say so to the reviewer before publicallty vilifying them as is the case here. In this case the facts seem to support the reviewer but you are hell bent on ignoring that. It doesn't paint you or DML in a very good light. In fact it basically says. Stuff you customer, we know better. Not a good way to treat customers in any business.
One thing I can say is that if the Trumpeter M3 family contains errors large or small then Terry's review will pick that up also.
Stick to new release gossip and leave the personal attacks at home Mr Hiroshi it is much better reading for the Modellers. If you truly value free speech then express it where there is a chance of reply, or is free speech only YOUR speech? Like Baghdad Bob you are the laughing stock of Modellers in this part of the world. I'll tell you waht, you have an Asahi and I'll have a Cascade (we don't drink Fosters) and leave it at that.
Cheers
Al
