Do you still have the 1/350 type 23 for review?

Jeremy as your reviewer status has lapsed I am unsure if Jim would send these to you, as KitMaker Network tries to reward those who have provided content in the last 12 months.

I am not sure how to take that Darren. My lack of reviews over the past 12 months is not from a lack of trying.. I lose out almost everytime, because "someone beat" me to it. I am starting to wonder if this is a "good OLE boys" club. For example the HU-16 and A-6A kits came out at the about the same time.... Both very anticipated and they go to the same person for build reviews!!! That was 3 almost 4 months ago... I am still waiting. I have also seen people do reviews on here with kitmaker provided kits, then turn around and try to sell them a few months later. I brought it up to staff a few staff members, and what happens they still get several kits to review..... I am almost done with this sit Darren, lots of great people on here, however I feel if your not in the "clicks" then sorry "go away". Like I said I have volunteered SEVERAL times to review and never get selected!

So See Darren, I have tried! I thought maybe the Way to get back in was to offer to do some less wanted Items.
I also offered to review the 1/350 Westminster that has been waiting to be reviewed for 2 months and no one will let me do it!
Also offered for the MV-22 that has been waiting since September, and Nope.....
So, I really don't know what to say... I always hear a different reason..... I have even been on around in ther MV-22 or CV-22, And have access to it flight publications... still not enough...
Ok off the soapbox now.

I am aware that you have written reviews in the past for Armorama at least, so I know you can write reviews with someone’s guidance. All you need to do is review an item for the site even an older item to get back your contributors status that will increase the likelihood of being successful when making requests. if you feel what I have said is unfair then please take it up with the publisher. I have also taken a look at the links you have provided and I agree you have asked for samples but these are all 2013 requests and your last review on Armorama was in 2009. As I said contact Jim direct and he may send you an item for review. Jim does not however have time to answer every request E-mail he gets and the person who is getting an item for review is listed in the google documents area which can be viewed by everyone.
