EDIT - please see HM site for update.
1/144 bombers caught my eye - that would indeed be sweet.

Sorry to disappoint you but no I don't work for anybody. I'm a retired air traffic controller up here in Canada. I have collected various things over the years and since I retired I started to collect military die-cast. I have seen new companies come along over the years, some good some not so good. So when Hobby Master came along I liked it so much because it offered everything I wanted, excellent castings, great detail, willing to build the not so usual models and at a very good price. Being retired I'm on a fixed income and I don't know about you but I only have so much money to spend on this hobby. With all this extra time on my hands I didn't want to sit back and just hope they were able to make it in this very competitive hobby. I decided to spend a couple of bucks a month and pay for a website that I did myself and maintain myself. Through the website and the kind people at Hobby Master who keep me informed about what is going on there, I hope to keep as many collectors updated on what is happening with this forward looking company. That's it, not very glamorous but neither am I.
I hope this answers all your questions.

I realize you are trying to make it easy for others by copying the news to here but I post the link to my website with the hopes people will click on it and maybe check out my whole site for pictures and reviews when they are there looking at the news. This is just my point of view and I'm not trying to tell you to do anything, I just wanted you to see it from my point of view. Hopefully people will take full advantage of all the information that my site has to offer.
doh!

Sorry hawkone

I will edit my post. 1/144 Bombers would be really cool and mainly wanted to point that out.
No offense, but if you are not going to post news on this site (and prefer people not relay hobby master news either) then maybe you should just bump up one of your old threads when you have an announcement seeing as how the threads simply ask that people link to the HM site, and don't contain much info in and of themselves. Again, sorry for posting the update.

You don't have to remove anything, I was just giving my point of view. I looked for my old posts so I could just add to it but I didn't locate it since it isn't push pinned like others. A long time ago I agreed to try and use the same thread and will try to locate it next time but today was one of those crazy days having to post the question on 4 or 5 forums and answering a lot of the posts. It has been overwhelming how many people actually took the time to participate, this is great. I have personally received close to 100 emails plus what is being posted. No excuse, I'll find my old posts.
I do appreciate you taking the time to visit my site and contributing feedback.

Don't go crazy (looking for an old thread), it was just a suggestion.
PS - Delete my quote from your post or my edit was pointless!

It's done and you had a valid point and I respect that, thanks.
