7198 Fighter Plane Attack - REVIEW in progress..

[Joebot]

Thanks for the review. The planes are much bigger than I'd first thought based on the early pictures we'd seen. Even so, this set is kinda "meh" for me.

I don´t understand, why only nazi symbols are so strictly forbidden. Catholic church killed many people during medieval age, their sign is not forbidden. Soviet Union killed many people during 1917-1992, red star is not forbidden. Signs on its own are not dangerous, always just people behind...But, I am going too O/T.

That's a fair question. The answer is probably that the swastika is still, even sixty years later, a politically "loaded" symbol. There are various neo-Nazi groups that still use the symbol. It's similar to the way that various racial slurs are forbidden. You might think, "Big deal, it's just a word." But the word (or the symbol in this case) is loaded with so much hatred and anger that it's best just to avoid it.

will you or anyone else be reviewing any other summer 2009 indiana jones sets? I really want to see the play features in ambush in cairo and chauchilla cemetery battle

If everything will go smooth, I will have both of mentioned sets on Saturday or Monday in my hands, so will review then.
