I was looking over the Real Models line and they had some different type of kits/conversions that no one else makes.

I was wondering what people who have built their kits/conversions think of them?

How does Real Model compare to Hobby Fan which I carry now?

Who would be interested in buying Real Model items if I carried them (I sell normally around 20% off retail)? And which items?

Thanks in advance for your time!

Gordon - for my money, there's no comparison between Hobby Fan and Real Model. HF is far and away better, but way too expensive to consider seriously for average modelers in purchasing kits.

In the past, purchasing a RM product was like a crap shoot - you never knew if you were going to get a gem or a lemon - unless you could peek inside the box before purchase. In the past year or so it has gotten much better and quality issues seem to have been addressed. I like their wide range and subject matter, and do purchase their subjects. RM products become even more attractive at reduced prices - I'd likely become a customer.

If HF's products came down in price though...

Both HF and RM products are better suited for modelers experienced and comfortable with working all-resin model products.

If the price is right I could be a steady customer also.
