Absolute Worst Kit Ever: D-8 armored car by some unknown Eastern European manufacturer, OMF or some such I beleive. Nothing fit; vague and incomplete isntructions that were hand drawn (or scribbled as the case may be); comprehensively bad molding; flash everywhere; translucent, brittle plastic; plastic couldn't be glued; just bad, bad, bad.

My second is any armor kit produced by Heller. Vague and incomplete instructions; bad molding; bad or non-existent fit; flashy parts; ugly, amteurish off-register decals. And they're the ones doing the 1/35th Dora...might not bode well for the kit at all...harrumph and hee-hee...
