My dad in 1979 picked up the K-41 Mercury Redstone, 1284 full-stack Space Shuttle, and the semi-scale K-39 Saturn V kits for me to build together with him when I was 9 years old.
To this day the ONLY thing I have ever returned to a hobby shop was that K-39 Saturn V.
At age 9 I knew it was a POS and don't know what Dad was thinking. Returned it and picked up a Nike-Ajax and LTV Scout instead. I actually explained to Dad at age 9 why the K-39 was such a lousy kit. He then agreed and we headed back to the hobby shop.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL
, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, and HAVOC !
