[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by psngrtrn</i> <br /><br />For starters, there are more collectors of GN Brass than there are actual modelrs, secondly, if you read the release, BLI is producing an S2 that has never been modeled before in either brass or plastic and BY THE WAY, THE OWNER OF BLI ISN'T RESPONSIBLE TO NOR ANSWERS TO THE CONSUMER, HE IS RESPONSIBLE TO THE COMPANY AND ITS INVESTORS <br />Ch <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Any owner who ignores the customers is going to have some very unhappy investors pretty quickly. If the customers don't buy the company's products, then the company loses money. <br /> <br />Personally, I think that BLI is going for another market niche. They are already in HO and N (via a new brand that is probably owned by the same people) plastic with sound. The brass is an entirely different market segment. BTW, I own about three BLI models, a light and a heavy mikado, and an SW7. So far no problems, but all I can do right now is run them back and forth on a six-foot test track. At least, they are better mechanically than my Bachmann Spectrum Decapod that came with the drivers on two axles out-of-quarter. I need to send it back and begin the process of the "Bachmann Shuffle." Or, maybe, I ought to just buy a NWSL quartering tool and re-quarter all five axles. <br />
