I think the captain is halfright yes the owner of quantummodels (www.quantummodels.com) whose services is very good and I use a lot, started OMNI models after being a key player in tower hobbies success. Omni models was doing so well that Tower bought it from him and now he has its own.. quantum[8D]

So yes Omni and Tower are the same, however if due to marketing strategy it is cheaper for things under $100 I am all for it
