## Description

Product description

Review: Best Metal Earth kit I've built so far - This is the 8th kit from this company I've built now (5 planes, 2 tanks). Of these kits, this is my favorite based on the enjoyment in building the kit, the challenge, and the finished product (not to mention the cool subject matter). On a scale of 1-5, I would rate the difficulty as 4. Generally the most challenging part of these kits are the pieces that require rounding or shaping. The few pieces that required rounding were fairly easy/straight-forward. The most challenging piece is the cockpit. If this is your first Metal Earth kit, this piece may require some patience to mold properly. My favorite part of this kit is the detail of the finished product. The finished piece isn't simply a basic representation, but a fairly detailed one with a lot of depth and texture. I liked the recessed vents, fins, and raised areas that really added detail to this model. This kit contains more pieces than some of the simpler Metal Earth kits, and it shows in the final model. This makes the construction more enjoyable. As with other reviewers, this kit also took me 3-4 hours to complete. I would disagree with the comment on twisting of the tabs by one reviewer. Connections tend to be much stronger with a twist tab join, so these can/should be used on areas that will not be seen on the completed model. Regarding bad reviews by others: Be careful when reading the bad reviews posted by some. Some people blame their inability to complete this style kit on the kit itself. Don't be fooled, the kit itself is very high quality. The detail is superb, and the metal pieces are sturdy if you don't bend them repetitively (as you would if you made a mistake). Hence, I continue to recommend these kits to experienced builders with good manual dexterity.
Review: Tips and tools suggestion - I made the mistake of starting with this one without reading the other reviews here. It is challenging. If you haven't build a Metal Earth kit before and you want a display quality piece, you should buy two of these. One to do a test build and the second for perfection, they're cheap enough considering what other models cost. Tools that I found absolutely essential were the SE MH1047L Illuminated Multi-Power LED Head Magnifier, a set of stainless dental picks (~$5), and a set of fine pliers that are smooth on the inside (no serrated grip) I used the Pittsburgh Professional 6 Piece Mini Pliers Set I got at Harbor Freight for $5. If you need to press against a finished surface, it's also helpful to put a piece of electrical tape around the side of the pliers making contact to prevent marring. Other things I found useful were an ordinary pencil: the eraser is a good diameter for bending some of the circular strips (~1/4"), a marker thats a little larger than a sharpie (~1/2") for some of the other circular strips, and the eraser also can act as a rubbing tool for bending the conical sections smoothly. I wish I had started on the bottom saucer section first. The instructions have you start on top, which means your early mistakes will be most visible. The radar dish is probably the hardest to get right. Once you get familiar with this design, it will get easier to do the top.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Sounds like this is one of the harder ones...so which would be an easier one to start with? And could a 6 year old do this together with a parent?**
A: My 6 year-old "helped" me put this together.  Typically, I would insert the tabs and then hand it off to her to push them down.  It was a lot of fun, but she definitely didn't help for the entire duration -- after a bit, she sort of drifted away and then I really got down to business.   It took me about 3 hours to do.  I would definitely recommend buying a head magnifier to do these.  It makes it WAY easier.  I bought this one for another purpose on here for $9 and it worked great: http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B003UCODIA

**Q: With special metalic paint, it's possible to paint it?**
A: Paint would cover up almost all of the fine details that are laser etched into the metal. So while you could paint it it would only make it look worse in my opinion.

**Q: How big is the Model?**
A: Totally built its about a half of a inch in height. And about the size of a dollar coin

**Q: What size is the model when finished?**
A: It's small. It's about 31/2 in by 2in.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ CHEWY!!!!
*by B***T on December 17, 2016*

SO COOL!!! I enjoy putting these together and have done about twenty of them, I am far from an expert and my first three ended up a wad of twisted metal, rage and profanity with a one star rating. There is a special way to assemble because these are not typical models. TIPS AND TRICKS: Don’t waste your time with the special tool sets or needle nose pliers (they didn’t work for me). I recommend getting tweezers with different tips. There are many times where you will be holding a piece with one set of tweezers and twisting/bending/inserting tabs with another and many times you have to reach tabs inside a small piece you have already made. Attempting to assemble this all by hand became impossible for me. Tweezer were needed. Buy some really small, fine point wire cutters. The package says just pop out the pieces for assembly but when they are very small they do not “pop out”. They bend and just make a mess, so snip the points where they are connected and now they will easily pop out. Get yourself some nails of various sizes to help transform flat metal pieces into cylinder shapes. I use different sized nails, cables, pens and markers of all different sizes to round some parts of these models. Whatever you use just make sure you can slide the model part off one end. Trying to round using tweezers is possible but doesn’t look as professional. Don’t get mad if you break some pieces, just keep a small bottle of quick drying, clear super glue. I’ve broken many tabs and pieces. It just happens sometimes, if you fold pieces to many times it will break, read the instructions wrong and have to undo folding and bending they can break. Use small amounts of super glue and apply with a needle and you can hardly notice you used it once it has dried. Some of the instructions are a bit unclear so look at the pictures closely and even the pictures of the next few steps. The directions are not very specific and won’t tell you exactly which way a part is meant to be bent, or engraved side in or out. Putting together a 3D model from 2D parts and directions can be confusing. Green triangle means twist tab and blue circle means to bend tab down. If you get lost using their included flow chart, just know that the parts go on in numerical order. You can see from my video that these are far from perfect but being able to complete them is a satisfying feeling. The rotating display is by Facinations and is solar powered. It works well indoors and works fine with just the lights in the room but do not work well in shady areas but it does take a battery if you want. Take your time, take breaks, have fun!
