Re: “Who’s the mimic?”
Hi Guys,
Re the last post of “Maddadicus” about K&C trying to mimic and upstage the competition… I always like it when someone posts a fairly controversial assertion and then, near the end, says as a kind of back-handed rebuttal “Not saying this is happening but it is amazing how Andy can read the minds of HB, NMA and Figarti, when it comes to stunting their potential sales growth…”
Well, just for the record, whatever few talents God gave Andy at birth the talent to read other people’s minds was not one of them!
Another factor not taken into account by Mr. “M” is that, occasionally, two or more people can come up with similar ideas at the same time. Especially if they read this Forum on a regular (daily basis) as I’m sure NMA… HB… Figarti… and K&C do.
Also, as regards to 'stunting other companies’ potential sales growth…” Really, “Maddadicus” you give me far too much credit if you think me or K&C can stunt other companies’ growth… they’re perfectly capable (in a few cases) of doing that all by themselves…
Finally, ask yourself this: which company first grew and developed the whole 1:30 scale market in figures and fighting vehicles? Was it NMA… HB… Figarti…? Now, if you can guess the correct answer (and it’s not too difficult) then you’ll know exactly who is trying to mimic and upstage who.
Best wishes and happy collecting!

I could not agree more.........I am not aware of any manufactuer who owns exclusive rights to produce 1:30 scale.......As long as a manufacturer does not copy "exactly" another's product,: they should be free to produce their own version of it.........This gives the buyer more choices and results in better products at "fairer prices"......K/C has been producing a good product with "moderate price tags" and I hope will continue to produce products based on customer demand.
