 Subject:  "Blogger Hiroshi" commentsList thread.  
  
 Date:  Jun 24, 2008
 From:  Paul A. Owen 
DML's "Blogger Hiroshi" posted some comments about my review that are not correct, I want to correct him here. His comments are posted on DML's web-site.

1) He states that the "...'cross' texture on the tool box in sprue E is wrong (not that equilateral)".

This is not a correct statement, he is obviously looking at a later series tool box as reference, the kit box is correct for a first series vehicle. The box was changed and moved to a new position after the first series. There is only one clear photograph of the first series type of tool box, this is in Ground Power No.059 page 31, this is an Ausf.E vehicle captured by the Soviets. The kit part compares well to this photograph. Unfortunately the example currently at Kubinka is missing this box. The plans in Trojca are incorrect too, so don't go by those.

2) Flash. Another ridiculous comment. The kit clearly has no flash. In fact the moulding quality is excellent.

Paul.
