I guess £6 is the inflated modern day expectation.
But even by todays standards, thats extremely steep for a model like this.

I printed on 176gsm card which I am finding to be a bit stiff for all the very small parts.

But, I notice on the cards, there are repeated instructions to "stuff the hull with scrap wood" and make smaller objects from "wood" or "matchsticks".
Do kids today even know what matchsticks are? lol
