The link was interesting but the connection odd. Not to mention are the stock pieces so terrible tg

What kits need this? Aren't the foundry marks on any of the styrene KTs?

That was my point too before I broke-down into illiterate gabbering. I meant to say earlier "are the stock pieces so terrible that they would need this so-called upgrade?" The foundry marks are easy to replicate by simply shaving a styrene numeral off a sprue which hardly qualifies this as important as an acquisition.

Gents, the comment on the foundry markings is from my own, as I lack all information regarding the advantages of this set over the kit's part...
