Not all of them. Just the oddballs (Martian Patrol, Lunar Patrol) and a representative sample of the others.

Ditto. I've got a pretty decent start with the four I have. Three of the four were badly stored in the original boxes and two had damage from the bad storage. Not much of a decision to build them, and I think I did them justice. The decals are not in the best of shape, kinda yellowed. I'd like to finish them with the decals eventually, but that's a project for down the road.
