This is the first model I have built from Hobby Boss. What a piece of work. I have downloaded some photos to illustrate what I mean. I am happy with the model myself but the small unnecessary parts make what could have been a fun build a workout. I am not a modeler who enjoys gluing three parts to make one when the company could have molded the one part. Also the instructions require some thought in places. Watch out for lines that seem to show where a part goes then you later realize it continued through to another location. I would recommend this model but not to a beginner. I have been building models for about a year (my second go round) and was frustrated a few times. Pins on some parts do not line up with the holes or maybe it's just that I'm 67. Not sure if I would do another Hobby Boss kit. Probably if it was one I was really interested in.
