Scale Craft wasn't only a distributor. They really "reboxed" everything, hence the SC triangle on the box. In fact, the sprues (and manual) came unboxed to them, and they boxed it.

So, were there kits from other companies with the SC triangle?

Yes from eg Gazelle. I'l look for a picture for you.

Either we tag the kits as being SC, no fujimi or Esci in the name. The timeline will show the link to the original kits. Or it is a pure distributor and we tag them to Fujimi or Esci

That's just what I would say.

Then I would prefere Scale Craft.

Scale Craft has also reboxed other kits without mentioning the "real" origin of the moulds.
