>>11022649WnW kits are gorgeous, if I wasn't so committed to Braille Scale I'd have dropped several grand on them over the years. Pity that they were basically a dodgy scheme from Peter Jackson/Weta and got hung out to dry at the end.
Regarding instruction booklets the sad thing is that those 60 year old Revell instructions are far from the worst I've encountered. A lot of vacform kits are famously bad (instructions like 1. Cut all pieces from the sheet and sand to shape. 2. Assemble the model and paint as desired. 3. Rig as appropriate)
I think the worst plastic kit manufacturer I encountered was back when I was building more interwar planes and WW2 oddities (but still great war planes, they were on my radar for some of them), Pegasus Models. No, not the wargaming terrain company that is pretty decent, the Pegasus I mean did low pressure injection moulding kits of less common variants of more popular planes, I'm sure at least one other anon here can vouch for how terrible these things were to work with. They always sucked you back in though, super cheap kits of obscure variants in the late 80s/early 90s was neat, and they made these shitty kits of subjects so diverse that you would see an Albatross D.V, Blohm and Voss BV 155 and Lockheed Have Blue in the same catalogue.
This advice is coming from someone who happily builds vacform kits from fifty years ago, if you think that you might want to build a Pegasus kit, YOU DON'T. If you want to build the exact variant that only they ever sold, MODIFY ANOTHER KIT OR SCRATCH BUILD YOUR OWN. IT IS NOT WORTH IT ANONS.
