I didn’t think we would have any club-wearing members come until Saturday. I was at the show from Friday through close on Sunday. I did have something cool to show club members as a reward for wearing their shirts. I failed to make Michael aware of it though. No worries though. It will be included in the next club update along with a slew of comments to the factory regarding the mockup. The next update should be out in couple weeks.

As soon as Alex Ross signs it, I’ll post a picture.

Jamie, I wore my 1701 club t-shirt Thursday to iHobby and Michael showed me the hidden scribed display which was very cool to see. It does look much better. Were there other surprises Saturday for club members?

Will you both be attending the first two retailer days?

I might have to get a red or silver marker as a black marker autograph will blend in and disappear on the box.

Is an update close?

To the person or persons continually voting for the showcases in the latest poll- What is wrong with you people??? Is there a name for it? Why on earth do you want to pay extra for something that’s already widely available? Why wouldn’t you want the money Polar would spend on this to go towards something more worthwhile? Better decals, better quality in the kits themselves? This makes absolutely no sense to me, but there’s at least one person out there continually voting for the showcases. What a waste! Of the available choices, bigger or at least better decals makes the most sense. To want showcases added to the kits means an increase in the price of those kits due to the added case, larger packaging for said case and of course the expense of running one or more injection molding machines to make them.
It makes much more sense to get better quality decals in the kits than showcases. The showcases can be found almost anywhere kits are found. You people (or person) need your heads examined! If Polar Lights starts adding showcases to thier kits and raise the prices of said kits because of them I for one will stop buying.
Jamie, this is sooooo a bad idea! Please dear god, for the love of the hobby and all things styrene…DON’T DO IT!

I hate to buy the same kit again just to get the improved decals in some cases. I am aware that some of the models have also had improvements made to them.

I’m wondering what the status is of the deluxe Batmobile. Is it still slated to come out in December? Also, have the registration of the decals in that kit been fixed? Thanks.
