Small Scale Military Headquarters

Lightening, I noticed that this model just arrived on your site, but is immediately on back order. I've seen that occur on at least one other site. Is it just popular and your orders matched or exceeded your allotment?

Thanks.

Hi,
Frankly, we didnt order enough to meet expectations and have another shipment on the way. I also think that alot of people decided to pick up this particular vehicle cause it now comes with pre-painted soldiers, something the other preceding King Tigers didnt contain.

On a side note, HM has upgraded their packaging for their new aircraft. The new packaging looks to be slightly stronger, more glossy, and contains lots more background information, not to mention images of other similar aircraft in the series. I'm impressed with the new marketing approach and like the way HM seems to "turn-on-a-dime" as they listen to consumer opinions, both good and bad.

This is going to be key as we continue to move to the next stage in diecast collecting. Those companies that dont pay heed to what the consumer opines (provided they are attainable requests) are going to reap the greatest rewards. Those that continue to do business as usual, are going to find it more difficult to maintain market share in the face of growing competition from a quantitative and qualitative standpoint.

Lightening, Thanks for the response. Often, you have a hard time just giving those Porsche KTs away.
