Hi, Does anybody have the 4 hinge pieces to attach the wings on the Flying Reptile? I prefer the original Aurora pieces if possible. Thanks in advance! Steve

I keep saying that one of these days, I'm going to make a mold for those things. The kit is practically useless without them, and they always seem to be missing from partial kits.

Tell me about it - you cant do much with the kit without them!

Thats just one of those parts that would not do well as a resin replacement; I think resin would be too brittle to be strong enough. I copied the cave man and woman and neandertal man in resin at least a decade ago and the spears broke and broke and broke every time I tried to do anything with them or even bumped them as I remember. resin is just not suited for long thin pieces especialy at a pressure point like a hing.

Which is one of the reasons I have never gotten around to it. I thought the same thing. Especially since they are the only thing holding the ends of the wings on. Though, white metal might work.
