Neat theme..
This is a neat theme - a bullet-ridden gangster car, complete with gangsters, a safe, a briefcase full of cash, a jewelry case, 3 different firearms, and a MOTORCYCLE!! The motorcycle came out nice. Lots of detail molded in, just waiting for paint. The handlebars do steer the front tire, if you're careful. Now the car. It's a beautiful car, but the execution of the kit left a lot to be desired. I had more cussing fits over the front axle and steering gear - and wound up having to glue it all in place. None of the wheels are straight. (Tip - Mount the tire/wheel assemblies to the mounting plates BEFORE you put the suspensions together - otherwise, you'll never get the pins firmly and fully set without breaking something else..) The hood gave me more fits. I attempted to make it a butterfly opening hood, except when trimming the massive amount of flash I inadvertently removed the pins, and replaced them with the ends of straight pins. Doing things this way, it's almost impossible to get the X bracing and hood mounted and square. Install the rumble seat BEFORE finishing the interior, or you'll never get it in place!! And there were other issues.... I'm not proud of the results, but it did come out nicely. I haven't used the figures and other accessories. My advice - don't attempt to make the steering gear steerable; don't make the hood a true butterfly but have it a set-on hood.
Gangbusters
Busy kit. Seems like a lot to build on this kit. Has some flash. Not to offend any snow flakes but this kit does include nice copies of some firearms. A safe. And the motorcycle. Has bullet shot windows as a option. Nice scale, looks right in size. Fast shipping.
take your time
Was a little bit of a challenge with the flash on almost every part. Just have to tale your time and be wit h the small parts. They will crack easily. The figures, safe, money, parts with bullet holes and guns go with the gang busters theme very well. I built it stock.
