These cards sure bring me down memory lane, as I loved toy model kits as a child. I never even bothered with the expensive kits, because to me, the joy was in the assembly. Once the robot/aircraft/ship/car was assembled, I usually just ended up discarding them.
The same with paper dolls. I would spend hours meticulously cutting out each figure, clothing, and accessory…only to throw them all away once I was finished.
Yeah, I was a weird (and wasteful) kid.
