Review: Fine product but needs better… - Love the way it looks now that it’s done and painted to my liking. It’s a fun build however it do a have a few flaws & lots of positives. Cons: Instructions are brief and not too detailed. There are times when you have to really think through a step to figure it out. The pictures are not the best either, can be confusing. Take your time! The details on the crew compartments are amazing! You see every details of the interior but take your time! The two fuselage parts will need to come together and if done hastily it would be offset. The pros: great detail, price, and the finished product is very nice!
Review: Cool project - It was fun to build, but the instructions were kind of a pain, I’m no expert builder at these models, but I have built a bunch of Lego models before. And also one of the light covers that go on the wing tips, one side is shorter than the other. That’s my only disappointment.
