Sure an interesting model no clear parts
Well done out of what's in the kit
Shocking bad kit I must say
I think this would put kids of modelling

My be you're right ,,,, it's just a toy ,,, very easy to build , but the end result is not very good. I think I'll trash all other kits that I have from that manufacturer.

You can sale them its amazing what people will buy
I bought a lot of 17-18 kits
Many of what I seen as rubbish
Some of the ones I rated the worst sold very fast
I bought them to keep 6-7 good kits after sale of unwanted
Kits the ones I keept were free
All kits a really good kits some just take alot to make a butiful

I think the arii kits in 1/32 builds up to be butiful models
At only 15 aud I think thay are fantastic value
I also got 3 kit from heller in 1/43 only 28-32 parts in the kits
I got 3 of them for 30 aud looks like ok models for the price

You're right ,,,, what I don't like may be good for some one with kids, Thanks for the advice. I've also got some 1/43 Heller kits and are very good kits. Arii 1/32 are very good too. Recommended.

I didn't know such kits existed... Quality seems indeed poor... nevertheless... there seem to be some interesting subjects at an interesting scale... Couldn't, for instance, the Alfa GTV make a nice accompanying piece for an Italian jet plane... or the Dyane appear next to a 1:48/1:50 French light aircraft? (just thinking out loud...)

AFAIK this manufacturer made 4 kits : R14, Golf, Ritmo & Dyane 4… very basic , snap on kits ,,,, may I'll do all 3 in a row

They might also work in a dio if you want to model a burned out wreck. No worries about lack of detail or poorly fitting doors for that!

Album info

Rather a toy than a model kit. Soft plastic . Good detail though. A good gift for your kids.
