I think that contacting the company is the first polite thing you should do. The second would be to write the review honestly including the companies response regarding the fethed up nature of the model......

Maybe just see if the instructions are wrong or something as in that second last picture they don't even have the same shape at the end with the gap.

what i would do is dremel up the edges to a close fit and use either filler,GS,or liquid GS to fix it up.. not much else you can do besides contacting the company like max said.

2. This is the worst kit ever made

It is as if the manufacturer is using 1960's Russian model-making/Space Program technology.

Just keep throwing new modules onto it to try to keep it together and then hope when it crashes it burns down to a small enough size first so as not to kill too many people.

I would be honest in your review if its gak its gak, after all if I read a review I want the honest approach not some sugar coated arse wiping.

You can explain the issues (use the pics ) and like mentioned earlier the response of the company and the out come of it.

tbh, the instructions make sense to me, but... regardless of the face you need to trim a hefty chunk of plastic off of the corners, the kit is still ill fitting...

also I wouldnt see a kit buying a diorama set, so I doubt that'd be a problem.


good luck with keeping what little sanity you have left Dave

meh...I sent an email to the IMPS-USA coordinator dood with my ethical dillemma. I will wait until I get his reply to see what makes sense. I don't want to piss off the companies who give the IPMS free kits for review. Don't really want to bite the hand that feeds ya.

..Now I have that horrible RATT song in mah head.

Oddly, this is the same problem video game review sites have...and is a leading problem in all industries. People standing up for the consumer can't stand up to the companies, because they get blacklisted by said companies.

That's awful, man! I wonder if you got a miscast, or if the company just has no quality control? If all of their kits go out like that you have to wonder how they end up with repeat customers...

I feel for your dilemma though - a scathing review wouldn't go down too well with the manufacturers, or ultimately the IMPS guys :/ I'm sure you'll be able to salvage it for something useful anyway. Was this a kit you picked out? Or do the IMPS guys choose stuff for you? It sound like a really fun group!

Well it's a vacu-formed kit...I don't think those can be miscast.

We get spreadsheets with all the available kits names, and we pick from that spreadsheet- you can't really get much more info from google, especially when it is a new kit and not technically released yet. It is a bit of a gamble.
