Thanks so much for showing these Mr T! I'd never heard of them before but what lovely kits they make up into and just like you said - not much money either!

I have built some of these kits.

They are pretty cool looking once finished but can be very frustrating to build. The metal does not bend easily and there are little tabs to lock the parts together that are really hard to line up.
I built the dragonfly as a gift for someone and it took me about 2 hours just to make the eyes because you had to bend multiple parts and then fit the slots on these parts onto a really delicate ring.
