A fun build for an experienced modler. All parts were precision molded, so delicate parts were easy to remove, providing you have a good set of nippers. Some pin marks surprised me, but no flashing. Directions were clear and understandable. I found that Tamiya Extra Thin took slightly longer to meld parts together. That helped me in some ways, since I planned to make the transporting pose, then changed my mind when I wanted all the gun to be visible. I had to dissasemble then reassemble the outriggers, without much trouble. I chose not to use decals. Again, a fun kit to build. Highly recommend.
