Well, I agree with Charlie: Some of us are still in the workforce and
just dont have time to build, scratchbuild or kitbash. The little time
that we have involves running things and performing some minor
modifications. Yes, I probably am not a modeler but a runner at this
point: before I entered the workforce in any major way - in grade
school and early high school- I had time to build things.

Once you have a surplus of time its great to custom build all the
models that you want. In the mean time I am happy that there are
people bringing reasonable quality to RTR models.
