And of course, much as I wax nostalgic about the kits of my youth, all of those kits (Aurora, Revell and Monogram) with molded-in decal locations! Trying to get those thick 1960s decals to stay put .5 mm above where they should have been, and Decal-set not invented yet. :P

I also recently reread an IPMS Canada review of the K&B reissues of the Aurora WWI series back in the 1970s. Remember the vac-formed base, strewn with sufficient boulders and gullies to rip the undercart off any plane?
