I will start by saying that it was a very fun experience putting the set together, especially testing the mechanism that moves the wings.
There were, however some things I didn't like about the set:
- the golden smooth tiles look as if the paint pooled in the middle, and they are looking quite ugly because of that
- there were two malformed bricks in the set, luckily I could use them in places that cover the bricks entirely so they are not visible
- the instructions are vague in few places, leaving you to figure out how to assemble pieces via trial and error; often the color of bricks on paper was badly visible, e.g. grey pieces on grayed out "previous steps"
- the fit of the bricks is so tight, that putting them together feels ok, but separating them is way to hard, for small or smooth pieces I had to use a knife to pry them apart
- there are many small imperfections on the bricks, that are visible while assembling
Imo it's still a good value for money and a fun set to put together, it also looks great on the shelf.
Great build with just a few pieces missing. Excellent price and would definately buy again.
This is a decent product with a good price-performance ratio. The entire transaction was straightforward and I would definitely recommend it!
Excellent and reasonable sized recreation of the famous SDF-1 of Macross. Very good assembly manuals, no missing parts - and quick & reliable shipping.
