This is a half pound of styrene and a great value
By: josephkleal
A must for scratchbuilding small structures or long low relief flats, or use to reinforce corners etc. in bigger builds. I'm not sure if every bag contains different parts or if these bags are all identical.
From the photos you can see varying thicknesses of flat sheets that are roughly 3 inches wide and 6 inches long and a variety of grooved sheets in different shapes. Also included were 5 tube pieces, a sheet of black, and two transparent sheets in green and blue.
This bag of pieces would really go far in N scale making billboards and backdrop flats, but in HO you might be limited to shorter structures. I was hoping for more variety of tubes or beams but maybe each bag is different.
I will absolutely order this product again
Good value, but don't expect a good assortment
By: nimr0d
I ordered this assortment to have some styrene sheet and shapes on hand for kit bashing and scratch builds. I was a bit disappointed that my assortment included only styrene sheet in white, black, and transparent blue, and no tubing, rod or strips. The amount of sheet included seems like a good value, though. My package contained : 7 pcs. .030 black styrene sheet 3 x 10, 2 pcs. .040 white styrene 5-1/2 x 6-1/2, 2 pcs. .040 white styrene 3-3/4 x 8, 1 pc. .060 white styrene 2-1/2 x 10, 1pc. textured white styrene 3 x 3, and 1pc. .010 transparent blue styrene 4 x 4. That's a pretty good amount of styrene for the price.
The Supply Depot

It is good to have this material. Initially I wanted this for something else but started with supports for my infantry. With a light scribe on a styrene panel, I can fold back and separate this material from itself. I cut some strips about 1 1/2 inches and two inches. They glue well and hold my landser upright.
My other projects (in my mind) will use this nice material. The only con is that there could be more styrene in the package. I will have more
If they could have made a fan of the items and shown that maybe that would help someone. there is something in this bag for everyone
Disappointing variety
By: daimonheller
Really disappointed with the variety in the package. Only received 4 unique items -- 2 of which were sheets of the same thickness just different sizes. All were sheet products, no textured pieces, no extruded forms like beams, angles, rods, or tubes. This pack pretty much just added to my very basic styrene sheet inventory and didn't aid building a 'parts' box for when you're looking for one or two things to execute an idea. Price per weight of styrene is attractive, but in the future will be buying specific materials instead of playing the styrene lottery.
Good product for a beginner like me
By: docrock
I bought three of these packs....at first i was disappointed that there was only one piece of textured plastic in the whole three packs, but once I started scratch building with the product i was amazed how many Ho scale buildings i was able to get out of these packs.
Good product for a beginner like me...Thank you Hobbylinc
Odds & Ends
By: pdm
There was a reasonable range of flat product, only 1 size of tube & that was too large for my needs. I purchased 2 packs hoping for some different extrusions, but they were the same.
Maybe they could have mixed packs of extrusions too ? K&S do a great mixed pack of metal extrusions , that would be great in plastic.
scratch building for N scale
By: ggtfmme
I have been using the assortment scraps from Evergreen because in N scale all the produced items I have made over the years the cost is greatly reduced most of the pieces I use for a variety of my constructions from scrap require smaller pieces of plastic
Grab bag
This is a good way to get some styrene supply that you might not have thought to order for yourself. It is literally odds and ends, different sizes and thicknesses, tube, sheet, etc.. Great to have a stash of miscellaneous goodies.
Plenty to work with
A nice variety of shapes,sizes and thicknesses for scratch building. I build 1/24 cars aand trucks and the pieces in this pack have been very useful for customization and scratch building such as a car hauler trailer,tool boxes etc.
suprised at what's inside.

This has been one of the best buys I've done in a long while. There is plenty to work with. I use it for scale cars but the uses are endless. Something for everyone. I plan on buying more of this package.

Useful and essential for anyone who wants to begin scratchbuilding
By: DavidkimAE86
This pack has small samples of all sorts of styrene sheets. For this price, it's a no-brainer.
