You must be reading my mind since I had a chat earlier today with a local enthusiast & pretty much said the same thing except I was pointing out Hooben's R&D costs they plow into their lines vs HL whose output is exponentially higher. To not spend a little more to modify the tooling & backdate that KV-1 upper hull has to be one of the most egregious forms of "pennywise, pounds foolish thinking" we've seen from HL.
