WF2022 video from PLATZ



WF2022 video from PLATZ 

This is the WF2022 video from PLATZ posted in January 2022, but which I have only just discovered.

You can either work your way through the video above, or you the shortcuts bellow to go to the 1/144 items of interest.

Obviously the video from Mr Platz is in Japanese, if you use the translate and subtitles option there will be a translation - but, its a bit patchy.
