I accepted the third one. Although on closer inspection back at base, it looks like the cockpit area, on the left side, is slightly malformed? and being ultra picky, a small paint bubble under the fuselage paint.
Personally I think this is not good that these models are being passed off as being of "Mechantable Quality" by Gemini.
if they cost a few quid ok but not at £35.

Sadly this happens all the time. As long as you’re able to go to a physical store to have a look at more than one copy it’s always good. I only order from collection sales online. Every brand new model I buy is in store. The only model I choose to preorder brand new is NG because the only issue I’ve seen from them is loose wings due to lack of glue. Nothing as bad as Gemini and Phoenix.
