I bought a couple of each kit and opened the ones where the packaging had been damaged.
In the case of the Lunar Patrol, the cutting pattern for the parts was printed on the balsa sheet. Centuri did this with some of their kits too.
Well, since the boxes are opened I guess I will just have to build them.
I don't know about the paint schemes. Pink fins on the Flare Patriot?

I have a Flare Patriot in white at the moment, but I don't think I'll be going with the pink/lavender fins like the box art. Still trying to come up with something fitting. Also keeping in mind how little fun it is working with those decals.
