When it comes to die-cast collecting, the more the merrier, and when it comes to HM, the
more the merrier.
Just received my Lexington (yellow wing) SBD, and it is the best yet. The two HM SBD's
and the Stuka are now on permanent display!

DJ from Los Angeles:
I just received the Coral Sea and Lexington Dauntless last night. The only thing I can say
is, wow, these are MIGHTY pretty. I'm not going to be able to add anything that hasn't
already been said previously about how good these planes look.
I will say that I'm going to think twice, if not three or more times, next year when I'm
making my die-cast budget. Maybe it's the fact that I've always been fascinated by the
Dauntless? Maybe it's that Spectacular pre-war paint scheme? Whatever it is, I'm sold
and everything else is looking a little second tier.
On first glance, these Hobby Master airplanes so out strip anything being done by Cxxxx
that I might cut out Cxxxx all together. The planes I got yesterday are such a thrill it will
be worth the wait.

HT from Connecticut:
Got the "red nose" Stuka (HA0110) from E-Bay and boy was I impressed. As you know,
Stukas aren't my thing, but man this model is a beautiful piece. Then I gleefully opened
my two SBDs WOW! What detail, heftiness and attention to quality. I am sooooo glad I
cancelled my Ixx Dauntless! So my opinion of Hobby Master is that this company has
what it takes to be a major player. A company that actually listens to its customers is truly
a rare gem.

PN from North Carolina:
I now have the Stuka and all three SBDs. I've been looking over them the past couple of
days, and I have to say, if your reading this and are still on the fence about getting your
first Hobby Master.....fear not! Buy one before they're gone I think you're going to really
like them
I always get excited when I order and get new die-cast. But I don't think I've been AS
excited for a while as I have been with these new Hobby Master models coming out. And
Hobby Master didn't disappoint in fact I'm now looking forward to any new Hobby Master
releases more than any other brand Hobby Master is fast becoming my favorite
company. It's hard to believe that they are new and just released their first models. If they
keep up what they are doing I'll be tickled If they improve on what they've done so far I
won't know what I'll do.
This is just my personal thoughts and opinions. I'm sure there are some that won't agree
and will say they still like this or that companies models better... and that's fine. But I say
go Hobby Master go. And those of you that don't have a Hobby Master model yet... try to
buy ONLY one.

Louie From Florida:
I knew this was going to happen. These models are gems and these first releases will not
last long and will definitely be held onto by most collectors. Get them now before you pay
big bucks you will not be disappointed. Just owning 3 of these models has made me
re-evaluate my collecting tastes and I have started selling off planes I know will be
replaced by much better and less expensive ones.
I want this company to thrive. If this company did 100 different models I would most likely
buy them all and get rid of all the ones I have instead. I really do like HM's stuff that
much.(This is not a paid advertisement for HM) I am just so happy that a die-cast
company understands what collectors want.
Guys, I cannot believe my eyes. I bought 2 Dauntless today. They are as good or better
than Dragon without the fiddly bits. So much detail unreal I am elated.

S987 from New Zealand:
But I have to agree with you, these planes are superb! I have received the Coral Sea
Dauntless and the Rudel Ju 87, and they have far exceeded my expectations. The panel
lines are not too pronounced, the detailing is great, including the cockpit interior, and the
slight weathering just adds to the overall impression.
If Hobby Master can keep this up, I believe we have got a serious contender in the
market. Cxxxx and Dxxxxx are going to have to lift their game to retain their position!

MD from PA.
I just wanted to say what a great job Hobby Master has done on their models. It is nice to
see a company go after new subjects. It seems that some are hell bent on finding stuff
wrong with a model. Not me. I am happy with stuff and am capable of overlooking some
minor problems. That said, I have never found anything wrong with any of my Hobby
Master stuff.

Hobby Master has advised me (by direct email) that they will send me a replacement
canopy in the next few days. I'm quite impressed with the customer service shown by
Hobby Master - in my opinion certainly superior to others!
