[SIZE=10pt]Built the 4 doors last night, whilst the moulding is very sharp and crisp, the sprue tabs are in some stupid places, on both front doors, the actual tab is proud of the door surface, so you need to cut the tab off and then using various degrees of sanding sticks, sand of the ‘proud’ tab and polish. Not an arduous task, but one I wouldn’t have expected with this kit from Meng. Similar story with the back doors, but to make it worse actually attached to the sprue on the rebated edge where the door closes. The Gun seems to be overcomplicated to build, not so much the gun but the cradle, trying to get 5+ points matched up on either side of the gun wasn’t easy and to get the stem to join took more sanding of ejector pin marks. Would have been a lot easier to mould the cradle as one and slip the gun in-between, but its built now so that’s okay, just need to build the machine gun and will be ready for spraying.[/SIZE]
