Its good, but it would be better if all the panels were made from propr Technic Lego bits and not specially made for this kit.

I think we all need to meet for dinner somewhere all wearing condoms on our flacid penis's.

We can giggle and wink to each at the table because we would know the secret

only the 8-10 pieces of body panels really, you think thats 1300 pieces there, and then count the few model specific bits, same with steves, the chassis, gears and working parts are the technics bits imo and they the fun bits to build

might end up a bit square and 80's looking without the modern finishing pieces
