USD $140.00??? Is that insane??? Deluxe kit, notwithstanding, that makes it CAD $188.00! At prices like that I will never shop at Hobby Link! But the point is, why is it so much more expensive than the deluxe versions of Penelope, or Arethusa - all of similar size, number of parts, and complexity of build? It is more than 2X the price (almost 3X) than the other two kits!
Rant...rant...rant!!
