Re: Classic MPC C-3PO and R2-D2 uber detail build
Well, I think I was the target market for these kits when they first came out.
I think I built one in '78-79....and ya know what? I didn't notice it wasn't screen accurate, and I didn't care!
I thought it was kewl that such a model existed.
Their target, kids age 10-15 were pleased. 
Nowadays we are more discerning and discriminating, but when these were manufactured they met the purpose. 
I would like to build a set of these now.
