Yeah, and two out of three those companies went under..and at the rate AUTOart is going???...LOL! Resin really does allow for niche models to be made quickly and at a low cost..they are basically just shells on wheels...The last two years of resin models would have taken two lifetimes of R&D, if they were fully opening die cast models... In a way, Resin models are kind of like Fast Food... fast, cheap (cheaper) and tasty, but are not nearly as satisfying as a good ole fashioned well prepared die-cast.

Resin is definitely here to stay... Unless they invent something cheaper or easier material to work with... We've definitely seen a boom in 1/12 and tuner models since resin has come on the seen... Hopefully there will be some companies that make both resin and die-cast models, as both have a place in my collection.
