MrObsessive Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 You have to finesse the 850i because it's a Revell of Germany kit in a Tamiya box. You ain't kiddin'! I learned that first hand with the one I did! Frankly, in this case "more is not always better". The kit could have done well with half the detail, and probably would not have been so fiddly to build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carnut Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 (edited) Hi all, I thought that I would jump in on this but not to stur the pot. I picked up this kit a few weeks ago and started to look it over. First off thank you Tim for an excellent review (I did go to your Fotki site it was worth the time). I have just started mine, I am just beginning to do a kit review for my club's newsletter here in Portland Oregon (SABA-NW). I will let y'all know how it goes when I'm done. It will be a straight build, which is different for me since I generally don't build right out of the box and besides it is also a bit out of my wheelhouse. I have started some of the sub assemblies and a little finessing is needed here and there on some places but nothing unsurmountable. I will post up some stuff later in the Workbench section soon. Have a good day all. Edited November 24, 2016 by carnut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
