 Subject:  Re: Short Shot problemList thread.  
  
 Date:  May 8, 2006
 From:  Paul A. Owen 
Regarding the "short shot" problem in MY sample kit. Tristar e-mailed me the following:

"This is the injection problem at the first lot order because some grease fill into the mold during production. The plastic cannot run through the molding so that the lower hull front armour plate is little bit lower. This is not the problem of the mold and this is quite difficult to found out during production period."

So correcting the front armour plate as I have done above won't be necessary.

Paul.
