Almost everyone may have tried it at least once, but it’s surprisingly difficult and quite deep.

There are also many types of darts, making them fun to collect.

There are magnet-based dart sets as well, so people who don’t want to put holes in their walls can enjoy playing easily at home.

These are models made by assembling plastic parts.

They range from vehicles like cars and motorcycles to more unusual subjects such as castles and street stalls.

In addition to assembling them, you can enjoy them even more by repainting them in your own original colors or deliberately weathering them to recreate wear and aging.
