Just having added up the total of what is in this kit (though using only a few websites for prices and rounding off things for an estimate), it seems to be anywhere between US$75-100 depending on cost (the paints are the most pricey especially). I don't know how much they were asking for this at the museum so I can't give you that amount. The way I got mine was for having a friend I've known for over 15 years that currently lives there who was able to send me mine after a year or two of having asked him, as I knew I didn't want to push it right away.Chris Sobieniakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09838106041175506925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24969765.post-15379870105913307542017-08-25T21:34:48.749-05:002017-08-25T21:34:48.749-05:00Can someone send me this kit?

The "dog characters" were an idea of the italian team (Marco and Gi Pagot) that proposed the original concept to TMS, and Miyazaki was againist a cast made entirely of anthropomorphic dogs.<br />He want at least an human character, Mrs.Hudson. This idea was rejected by the Italian producers, however, even if Mrs.Hudson is dog-like, her character design is "less doggish" then the others (And she is also a widow of a an aviation pioneer (like Gina in Porco Rosso), the Miyazaki lady in blue for this production).<br /><br />In the end Marco Pagot and Hayao Miyazaki became friend (and so Porco Rosso), but seems strange that he used a character with a design that, maybe, he felt unsatisfactory in the beginning.<br /><br />In which other stories appear this dog character?<br />I remeber in "A Trip to Tynemouth" (even if not so Watson in character colour).<br />Watson in the anime is a Scottish terrier, maybe this occurence in Tynemouthcould be an homage to a scottish/british person (If exist)? Or the Watson like simply a Miyazaki's friend/colleague spoof that in some occasions flew with him on intercontinal flighs? So the appearance in "Dining in the air?<br /><br />(Thanks for the blog, by the way, is my first comment)Renio Linossihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11608619740691563545noreply@blogger.com
