Born Losers Series
Posted by Big Jake on Monday, May 17, 2010 8:05 AM

I was searching another Bb and posted the questions on the hitory of teh Born Losers kits.

There were Napoleon, Hitler, and Cxastro.  I have the kits but lost the Inst. to Hurricane Katrina - (***)

They were originally made in 1965 by Park Plastics,and are the only kits they ever released, Napoleon Castro and Hitler ...a fourth kit Caesar was to be added to the list but because of poor sales he was given the thumbs down... 

A Mexican company repopped them in the late1980s'...  Anyboby out there have the instructions or some more pictures?

Thanks

Jake

I have all 3 kits, in fact I just found them again. (I had moved from NY to Jersey) I was unpacking some stuff and they were stuffed in a box marked 'odds and ends'. Let me see if I can hook up my other printer to scan the directions for you. You need which directions? Geez let me make sure I have all the directions as well. I'm pretty sure I do. Tongue Tied

Not being greedy, But all three would be nice.  I have Castro albeit faded and "stinky", but Hitler and Nap are struck together and I can get them apart.

Thanks

k, just give me a couple of days. I have a few things on the front burner to take care of, then I'll get to scanning them. I'll put them in pdf format.

This is a great series of kits. When I have the time, I want to start them myself. Big Smile

K, found them, but I dont have the Hitler directions, I have the others. I have one or two more places for me to check though. It's hard to go through so many boxes of crap that I've somehow accumulated when I moved. Actually I guess it's a good thing as I'm tossing out most of that crap. Big Smile
