This was my first border model. Its a fantastic model. But you better make some time. A absolute ton of parts. Some i feel unnecessary (did we really need to cast the cooling fans, but leave 4 blades off for me to line up and glue? id rather just have them on the fan properly). A hatch should not NEED 13+ parts to make. It looks great but it has def shy'd me off border models for a bit till my skills improve and i get more time. Def no a weekend build and not for beginners, but if you got the time its a great model
