Re: Krap Kits GB!!!
I'd be curious just what "identical scale" (on the box top) means -- a botched translation of "constant scale" perhaps ?

Re: Krap Kits GB!!!
I never think of any kit as pkra; just a challenge
I think the only kit I have to fit this even closely is the original Airfix Gloster Gladiator

Re: Krap Kits GB!!!
"pkra", like "krap" is an effort to avoid the forum naughty word filter.
Actually "krap" is really K-Rap, a variation on K-Pop, and little know to everyone here (so far) is that this will be a Korean music GB -- where's PurpleThistle ?

Re: Krap Kits GB!!!
actually, pkra was just bad typing and not pre-posting checking
I suppose it could stand for plastic kits, really awful

Korean music GB? You mean, we have to listen to Korean music while we´re cutting and glueing along?jRatz wrote:

Once I listened to the music on the North Korean website, it made me thinking about going to the asylum
Noooo, that´s too much for me.

Re: Krap Kits GB!!!
