Re: Reviews - Too Many High Ratings

Date:

Mar 8, 2005

Sean Lynch

I can't speak to some of the new kit reviews, as most of the kits I have been buying lately are several years old. I would agree that it would be nice if there was a way to go back and update reviews of older kits or even have people add comments to the review after they have built them.

A case in point would be the Academy M-51 sherman. The review gave it overall good marks. I would agree with many parts of the review. However it did not mention one of the bigger probelms of the kit, the badly designed and misfitting gun mantlet canvas shield. I don't remeber if this wasn't mentioned because it was an inbox review or not, but an update to the review or option for people to follow up would have been benficial.
