Man this is a massive thread. Well here's my two cents worth. I've grown up with video games played them most of my life and if it wasn't for an article in a hot rod mag on model building ( for all you kiwis and Aussies it was street machine ) I would never have given it ago. I agree with a lot of what you guys are saying and there needs to be more advertising and a lot more variety of kits. From my own experience I've managed to get a few of my friends into building simply by showing them what I'm doing and I reckon if they advertise it abit more you'll start getting more people into it. Someone mentioned about getting the cars off gta and making them into kits that's a great idea cause I play that game all the time and would love to build those cars as I'm sure a lot of other people would to.
