I'm all for that, but the constant start/stop of lines that never get completed even when 90% of the tooling is already done, or managing to bungle even the simplest of things like the new LoTR line (left-handed Legolas?!) it's just too much "what are you doing?" for me to commit to anything from them besides the occasional Select.

And I'm a trekkie before anything else, so DST's treatment of that license (before apparently cancelling it outright and just not... telling anyone?) has been a source of frustration for me for years. How are you going to just dupe the AMT tooling for the ships but keep all the inaccuracies? Or add new ones, like the colored nacelles on the D? Or not do another run while product spends years at 3x+ retail on the secondary market? Or, or, or...
