Sorry, but why a seller announces future offerings here in a discussion forum?

We already talk about these kits before, you can find the related topics easily in this forum and the AFV one...

Hi;

The Man was just giving you Info on kits.
How you Value the Info is your choice, there are Many Vendors and kit makers who post such info here on this Fabulous Forum.
I see no problem with this type of info being posted even if I mite not like the subject matter !
The More Info the Better IMHO.

CHEERS; MIKE.

Well, he's on-topic but I do understand Hugo's perspective.

BUT

There should be a sub-forum for vendors to announce like Ken did then again, Object 279 was part of the Soviet-USA Cold war so it's on-topic.

I don't discuss the topic itself.
Just point out that it is simply and planly a publicity of the vendor, since:
- it does not give any new approach to the already available kits, nor the future released Takom one.
- it does not give any real "/news". Anyone -and almost everyone- usually visiting this forum already knows that these kits were to be released.
- its not a manufacturer announcement that may allow us modellers to point out eventual flaws/mistakes, or provide feedback so the manufacturer can know what customers will like to see

Again, if other people like to see this kind of topics, its OK.
I just pointed out the dissappointing I felt when I read the original post, since I expected -yes, it may be my fault- any real news or further information about the kits, and not the announcemente that a particular vendor shpuld have them listed on the future. For that fact, they're all already available at the Far East, or in a Pre-order status in the case of Takom's kit...
Just my humble point of view, anyway, and only suggesting to consider if it would not be better to have a specific forum for this kind of vendor offerings...
