If that's the case, stear far FAR away. IIRC, SuperBug Models is listed on our bad vendors list. LSP_K2 and Harold 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don't think I have ever seen that before where they cross out the MSRP and raise $19 and act it like it's a deal.

Dave I found the image of the set Super Bug had for the Trumpy kit and it is identical. They actually used the same photo.

AlanG Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Maybe users on other forums should be warned about this 'new company' too. I'd hate to see others get the same treatment again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
