 Subject:  Reviews; in-bag vs.buildList thread.  
  
 Date:  Jul 26, 2004
 From:  James Tainton 
I just want to say that in my experience in-bag or "first look" reviews are pretty useless really- The recent build experience I had with the Bison I from Alan could never have been anticipated from looking at the contents of the box. Hands on experience is something I will always look for in reviews of kits in the future. Sometimes I wonder if these guys build these kits up before they put them on the market. My suggestion to all those potentail model kit buyers out there- Beware the "In-Box" review- they really don't tell ya much.
