    They have some nice stuff.
    Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

    But US$36.35 for a 500+ piece engine kit sets my BS meter off big time. Other prices seem pretty low, too, for the level of detail. Seems to me there was a warning on Facebook some time back?

    Yep, I was feeling the same thing. To good to be true so it probably is . But the level of detail they show is amazing and that is what drew me in.

    I Googled "500 Piece Model Engine Kit" and that picture popped up with the "impossible" price, but also on Amazon ranging from $700 to over $900, ready to ship. I'd say that link is Phishing, hoping for credit card info....

    Good Info. Sounds like someone is up to no good.

    I've got one of those. Had it now for nearly ten years and have yet to take it out of its box.
    Bought it in the UK, it cost quite a bit even then. But I've never had somewhere to put it where I can leave it while I'm putting it together without it being disturbed.
    I will do it.
    One day.

    Not having it assembled would just eat at me! I'd probably stay up all night putting it together! LOL
