For the price, you get an excellent model. This model takes tedious amounts of work and has many small pieces, over 130 pieces together. If you're new to modeling ships, I might recommend trying out Revell's USS Missouri model first, it has around 70 pieces. This Arizona model is a great build. The only issue I had with it is the rigging. The directions are very clear up until the last page on how to do the rigging, other than that, good product.
