Model Kits as Collectibles,
A collectible is typically a manufactured item designed for people to collect. They are different from other collection items such as butterflies or stamps. To encourage collecting, manufacturers create a series of a certain collectible, with each item being different in some way. Trading cards are an example of this, where the collector will try to purchase and display a complete set of the variations. Periodically, an item may become very valuable, and these are called collector's items.
