Hi Everyone,

Though I know it's a bit drifting off the topic, take a look at :
www.engrish.com

It's a site full of these -mostly Asian- misspellings of English, covering a wide arc of topics from candy wrappers to signs to instruction leaflets.

The one that pops to my own mind immediately as far as box top bloopers are concerned is the combi kit of a 251 Ausf D with a Pak 75mm by AFV Club, proudly selling itself on the box as "Limited Value Edition" :)

Luckily for everyone who was able to score that kit the value was pretty high after all!

Happy Modelling
Jer
