[DMCForum] Re: SunStar Model

["erikgeerdink" <erikgeerdink@xxxxxxxxx>]

I too received my model (actually 2, one was sent by accident...but 
thats a whole story in its own...) The models are, what Walt 
said, "one step away from getting a few jars of goo".
One word comes to my mind....trash. 
I'll stop my rant on the subject, since this one hits home.  The 
Sunstar model is a great model!  Its just too bad they used Lee's 
car.  Maybe they should have contacted DMCH or another vendor to get 
a car that is true.
