Pretty neat set of do-dads to spiffy up the next model.

while i'm sure they are excellent i have to question what sort of advantage these would have over homemade ones? At that price i don't see the point. You could easily make your own from paper/ card at a faction of the price...

Exactly what I was thinking. I can make them for the cost of some brown cardstock and thread.
