          “Plastic Parts = TBC” … I think they got their abbreviations confused — or would they really mean the parts will continue in another kit?

            Could mean “to be confirmed” Jakko……especially if the box art had been mocked up before the sprue layouts had been completed. Not an acronym I’m familiar with though.

                    That hadn’t occurred to me, true. In English I tend to read it as “to be continued”,

                    To Dutch-speakers, it chiefly means “tuberculosis” (Though in recent decades, the official abbreviation for that has been “TB” for some reason.)

                      It's probably a sign of the creeping influence of the English language!

                      It's been referred to as TB here for as long as I've been on the planet and my mother, in her late 70s, ALWAYS refers to it as "TB".

                        Possibly. Chances are these doctors read “TB” in international publications and began using it for that reason. People seem wont to do that, replacing perfectly good, established words by foreign ones with the exact same meaning

                          Comes from the biological classification shorthand of the organism mycobacterium tuberculosis (M tb) which causes it. The tb part comes from the “old” name for the organism “tubercle bacillus”.
