I saw this in this morning's emails. All you have to do is get frustrated to the Nth-degree with the Heller plastic.

Mike, I've heard horror stories about the 1/24 kits warpage. It points to the kind of plastic Heller used. Similar problems with their 512 and 917 kits. Patrick

Just a note that in my Union issues of Heller kits I've not noted any of the sort of warpage I keep running across comment about. 512S, 917, and Formula 1 cars included. I've also not encountered it in my 1970s Heller issues of F1 kits. So I can only conclude that such warpage problems were found in a certain era of Heller issues.
Am I right or wrong in this conclusion?

Dusty, I've only heard about said kits. I concour that my F1's, 2's and 3's have never had problems with warpage. I have an unbuilt Union BT33 and don't see any problems.
