RESIN PUNKS chronicles the earliest days of garage kit modeling in Japan, when fans made kits for other fans, know-how was traded in doujinshi, and small hobby shops became major players.

Hobby Shopping collects nearly 50 odd, interesting, or artistic model kit ads from hobby magazines and books of the era. Some are hand-drawn, some have professional photos, some are utterly inexplicable… but they’re all interesting in their own way.
