It's deeper than that.
I remember seeing an ad in JC whitless when I was a youngster advertising kits like that one. I was just a kid and still knew it was a stupid idea.

Someone spent allot of time, effort, and money to try and make that bug look like a 930 and they missed. Big time. It is sad because someone worked really hard and failed miserably. This was not done as a joke, it was a serious attempt. Someone saw an add, checked it out, ordered it and paid good money for it, and actually tried their best to build it.
The concept is all wrong, the quality of the build is horrible, the quality of the kit is worse.
This is representative of people who decide to do things that simply shouldn't be done. Either because it's beyond their capabilities or it's just a really dumb idea, it's just wrong.
