Don't Pick on C3

Hey, don't pick on C3. Technically speaking, its only one repaint, with two different tampo applications. Talk about a low point in creative marketing.

Re: Two NAS available for ordering

To all the hater's drinking "Haterade" because it's not your department being represented, or something you don't like since it's only a "repaint." I have a simple solution.Don't be mad and don't buy it! [8-)][:-?] I bought one, only cuz it's my department.

REPAINTS

Cop car models are all repaints, so I have no problem with C3 doing the same. But for crying out loud, wouldn't it have been smarter to issue these pieces at least six months apart. That way, it would have allowed the Navy collectors a chance to build funds for both purchases, as they are only in a 1100 plus each issue? That way maybe they would have also been able to sell more units.

So don't get all swabbie with me. All I'm indicating is that the Marketing Genius behind this issue could have staggered the models in a way that may have been benificial to their customers. Something that they've never leaned to do after ten years in the business.

PS: As an MP I had the absolute pleasure of roughing up plenty of sailors while transporting them to the brig. Thanks for the memories. LOL
