The box is pretty nice with a new design and nice art work.
The backside features a fully assembled ship with some technical info. I think this is good since you can pretty much assemble the ship from this one picture. But if you're still unsure you can download the manual from ttcombat's webpage.
All the parts are nicely wrapped in bubbleplastic. You get a stand and stand-stickers with the model.
Well you get a total of 26 pieces aside from the stand. First impressions are somewhat disappointing. I spot a couple of large moldlines and excess plastic cling to the models. Some of the fins have warped :(
Massive excess plastic.
Ungh this piece really made me cringe.
3 of the 5 fins where warped
I mean what the hell. I hate trying to bend resin back with warm water.
Moldlines , still they're on the bottom so should be okey with some sanding.
Massive moldlines and holes from the bubbles in the resin.
Lots of bubbles.
This one wasn't that bad, but still had to use my hobby knife to shave some of.
:( This one will need some greenstuff to smooth out the the hole and bubbles :(
Moldlines and some bubbles
Something that bothered me when I was fixing the diffrent bits was that the quality differed from piece to piece. And the color and texture wasn't consistent. You could see it very clearly on the fins. Both the texture and color. Weird that they use diffrent stuff on diffrent parts on a new model.
Well here are all the parts cleaned.
I tried some dry assembly and the large parts are like forgeworld. Horrible
Could be that I trimmed a little to much. Still it's a difficult fit that needs some work to make it happen.
But when you put the side panels on it's pretty forgiving. But it still needs some greenstuff on the upper part.
Well that's all for the unboxing. I'll be back with a assembly walkthrough to put this beast together.
See you until next time.
