ABSTRACT:
A plastic-model kit having a plurality of components containing at least one die sheet for molding having cavities therein and at least one thermoplastic resin having a low softening temperature, the die sheet and the thermoplastic resin being packed together in a unitary package. The thermoplastic resin can be softened, by dipping in hot water, for example, at about 60.degree. C. to 80.degree. C., and the softened resin can be cast by hand or by a simple tool into the cavities on or through the molding die sheet and then cooled at ordinary temperature (that is, 20.degree. C. to 30.degree. C.) to form various shaped and sized pieces for the plastic-model kit. Ornaments or decorations having a three-dimensional or roughly three-dimensional visuality such as for dolls, human models, animal models, building models, ship models, car models, airplane models, and the like can be assembled from the plastic-model kit. In addition, various accessories, for the hair or clothes and the like can be assembled from the present plastic-model kit. These various products all have an individual and different characteristic of shape, designs, sizes and/or color, and, accordingly, provide a wide scope of creativity to artists or hobbyists when assembling the same.
