Entry #2!!! I’ve been sitting on this one for awhile. I got so excited when I cleaned the parts that I just had to start playing with them. The smaller assemblies went together super easily…this kit is also hollow-to-the-max so lighting will be a breeze. I’ll be doing an on-board 9v for the power source for sure. Fiber optics, yes, too. There’s a fair amount of seam cleanup before the major assemblies happen, which is a shame because otherwise the detail is pretty good. Panel lines are a bit heavy but oh well. I like it anyway. There are also 2 paint schemes I’m undecided on, either the standard metallic or the Wild Karrde version, which is super heavily rusted and such. There’s already been a few builds with the latter so I might do something a bit more unique…maybe even with some fancy transport company graphics or something. We’ll see!
