war...would you buy a car, handmade or not, with spot weld marks all over it? I mean the prototype...first couple kits...ok, but this thing has been out long enough to get things together and make it look cleaner. You said it yourself, your kit is custom and contains a lot of 1 of parts and non-produced prototypes. But the everyday kit should look cleaner. People give tom flak about the cost of his kit too, but at least it looks clean and stock.
