Just these on a certain auction site, very interesting way of selling a kit or getting spares.

I need to catalogue my spares box!

I think that would make the entire kit about $200.00 or so! Imagine if he does that with one of the newer 1000+ part kits!

Nothing like buying a box and one part. LOL

Yep - there's others who do similar. One guy breaks kits like this, while another takes major sub-assemblies and sells them as lots (turret sprues, suspension set, etc). It can be frustrating when you know a good kit is being broken up, but handy if you only want a few parts and don't fancy spending the full kit price I guess...
