** "Kitbash" has also worked its way into [[Transformers]] fandom to refer to the same phenomenon: custom figures constructed by incorporating parts other than those originally from the figure being customized.
* Scratchbuild: Model made largely or entirely from basic materials rather than manufactured ones.
** A common epithet among scratchbuilders is to call a model kit a "shake-the-box" kit, on the implication that [[Rated MforM for Manly|Real Men Scratchbuild]] because all you have to do to assemble a kit is shake all the parts around in the box that it came in. Has expanded to be applied by non-scratchbuilders to some excessively easy/beginner-level kits, too.
* OOB: Out Of the Box, building a kit only from the parts actually included, plus paint and glue. Also called "Box Stock".
* Factory Stock: A model that's exactly as built by the the ''subject's'' manufacturer. May or may not be Box Stock. Used mostly in car modelling.
