I paid the equivalent of 55US$ in Taipei....and spend half my saturday cutting and assembling the pieces.
when finished, this model measures a bit longer than a 747 in 1/200, but it is narrower.
I bought this particular enterprise because it saves me the pain of painting (I have no airbrush) and potentially screwing up everything. the finish on this relatively small model is quite good, and even the complicated nuances in colour (known as "aztec pattern") on the surface have been faithfully represesented.
some patience and a good instrument is needed to separate the pieces from the runners (i screwed up some...in not so visible areas)...that is almost the most chalenging thing about this model after the circuit mount hidden inside the secondary hull. I guess a model builder with some experience can put up this little enterprise in no time and with much better results than myself.
