Thank you. It is easeir than to have it all in one long thread. Now to decide... I have them ALL! I think ...

I have also the question... now some of the original packets they have one large model like the London Gate... okay. But if you have Weapon of War... someone they will ahve to build all five model correct? It would not be fair to make one model from the set, as some have only a few parts.

I agree, you would have to finish the entire kit, no matter how many pages.
But this is only my opinion.

The one I am sure no one they will build is Hampton Court Palace. It is multiple sets of sheets. It would take a year!

I'm in! I have never built one of these before. Will be a great opportunity. I think I'll try these:

Oooooh those are quite difficult (and fairly large). You h ave to carefully form the body of the car with a heated spoon!

Ohh this is a cool idea!

Ok Lala make her choice(s). I review ALL of the Micromodels so far. It is such a hard choice. Since I make my favorite already I have to find a new one...

I pick this the Beam Engine...

The Beam Engine it is one large, complicated model. It is mostly card but it have the usual Micromodels details you make from "whittle match stick" etc.

But also I want to attempt this model... The Oil Well

I would make the Oil Well my first decision BUT it is more complicated than I think I have skill or patience for. The model it is not so much paper but make from glue stiffened string! It is also one of the models that it is not in colour (not that there is a lot of colour for the oil well...) But even the grass it is black and white (or grey). So not only is much of the model to be fabricated from glue string, it must also be hand color (or color on the computer). So I am leery of its complexity...

That is the sample of part of one of the 6 cards... It is a lot to make from string!

Micromodels it is a brand name (see the packages and links prior) so it is models make now by Micromodels USA or in the past (like I show from the 1940s and 50s). They are vintge model. Some go back to the World War II.
