It's been mentioned before that Round2 doesn't view other companies as tit-for-tat competitors, so the idea they need to match each kit release from Company A with something from their own tooling inventory doesn't hold up very well. Round2 has many unique options which no other company can nor would try to match, and the number of competitors, when viewed down at the individual kit level, is incredibly small.

In my dealings with all three model company personnel in their  attendance at NNL East, I've found them all very professional and they speak highly of each other at the different companies.  There isn't a tit-for-tat competition here.  

As far as Round 2, there are people who will criticize that they are focusing on reissues,  but remember that this is what and why they've purchased.  The so called "tooling that's been long paid for"   was only purchased by them a short time ago and indeed costs money, so they have to work it so that the investment is worthwhile and to pay for the business debt on it.   Anything they reissue now on that deep dive into the kit vault indeed requires investment to bring the tooling to a usable and fruitful state. 

Speaking with them, there is so much they'd like to do, it's a matter of time and money. More good things to come!
