Was excited to get a few of the new ac re-releases....but all the ones i got had major warpage across dimensions and a horrid soft plastic

 

Plus they never responded to request for replacement parts, id avoid!

Well, I for one am glad of the reissues - especially with the 1/72 Boeing 707, EC-121 Warning Star, L749 Constellation, Boeing E3 &  Douglas DC-6s available  at bargain basement prices!:lol:

Heller seem like a badly run company to me.   I bought some reissues of the old Lindberg construction vehicles a while back.  I'm sure the original Lindberg kits had injection plastic tyres...................but Hellers included polythene tyres.   Yes that's right that horrible plastic that can't be glued together or painted very well.   It wouldn't be so bad if the tyres were in one piece but they're in 2 halves which have to go together.
