Hello there and welcome to The Life and Times of Mulch (that's me). Join me in my world of Vlogging, Partwork Models, Lego and other videos of my life and the world around me. Hopefully there will be a little something for everyone.
What gets me on these kits are the visible Phillips screws that the real thing never had. Totally out of realism. Fortunately 'Scale Hardware' supply proper Hex/Allen and scale nuts washers etc.
I totally get what your saying but for me although the realism would be awesome, I'm just happy to make the model its more about the process for me and the escape that it gives me from my personal issues and I can just loose myself in a build. Many thanks for the comment though I hope you'll join me for more of the build as I really like having this interaction with more people. Take care M.
Just head over to Fanhome.com and you can order it from there It's about £12 an issue UK ( around $15 US ). It's a really exciting build I'm glad you like it. Let me know if you get it and if you get stuck or any questions then please just ask. I'll help if I can. All the best. Yes I love E.T too. Happy building
Warning I subscribed for the 1/8 GT40. I received 14 months of subscriptions then they stopped arriving and I was still charged. I’ve reached out to DeAgostini several times over the past few months. Their response. They’re working on it. Still no resolution
Up to you with the stickers dude. With mine I"m keeping until the end of the build and then will put on. If you look on google images at the real car you can see where they need to go. Personally I think the car looks too empty without them on. Thanks again for watching.

Yes it's small but packs a lot of details and was my first try with the Funwhole brand and wiring and I didn't want to get to big a set and have a bad time.
Hello there yes should be a fun build. As for the glue I tried pva but didn't seem to hold so I put on the smallest amount super glue, I tend to use a thicker glue. you don't need much and if you glue on the upper ridge you won't even see it. Thanks for the comment.
Yes indeed I'm really enjoying the build even though I've only had two packs the quality is great and looks awesome. Thanks for watching. Pack 3 is coming soon.
Looks like a cool build bro I’m currently doing robocop and E.T from fanhome and it’s crazy how much goes into the builds engineering is incredible I can tell from this your gonna have some very tricky parts to do n that’s the bits I love lol a challenge happy building pal 👍
Thanks mate yes really enjoying this build and looking forward to future parts. Im currently building Robocop, Marvel Gauntlet, VW, E.T. and coming soon Rossi Bike and Batman 1966 car. I have been building the Titanic but it's not on the channel but that will be finished this year. Best of luck with yours too. Happy building.
Cheers for this! I’ve subscribed to this build as well so was curious what to expect in the next pack. This is my second build with Fanhome/Eaglemoss as I did the Ecto 1.
Just checked mine they seem fine, maybe check the alignment and spring but otherwise I don't know why that would happen. Also I would go back and just double check you haven't missed something out. Hope this helps. Happy building.
@@mulch1973 aww thanks mate it’s cool am sure I will get it sorted one way or another they should have limited customers if they couldn’t keep up with demand that’s all I’m at same stage as u btw :)
Personally I think they are releasing too much too close together and now struggling to cope. Im a little concerned as doing the Batman build soon also. Thanks again for your support.
@@mulch1973 yeah your right pal they have defo took too much on at once I’m also building E.T for my wife as she adores him I fear this will end badly for a lot of ppl
Just finished doing this pack…were you one of the lucky 1’s to get the 1st binder for the magazines or you struck out like me and to wait til they are back in stock? *edit* You answered my question 😂
Fan home have done me over on order 4 won’t reply won’t take my money I’m worried edit: they usually take my money on 27th every month and my account updates usually after delivery this time my account hasn’t updated still says delivery 3 is on the way even though I received it almost a month ago I complained about it and told them take my payment as usual then they said it will come out usual date 28th I was like eh wtf so I said it’s past that now plaz take my payment and update my account I got no reply and again I sent a message 1st feb take my money update me account and let me no what’s happening no reply so yep I dunno what’s happening might just scrap it n seek legal action for my money back
If you can try and call someone there it might help. I really hope it does. I guess i've been lucky so far although I think the Marvel Gauntlet is delayed. Stay safe. Happy Building.
Yes let's hope they get through this back up and get everything out. I agree these things are a mission to make anyway so delays are not helpful. Hoping you get stuff through soon. Best to you.
I know for fact it took you a few tries on that magnet lmao I had to do it twice coz there was a fault with the helmet so had it replaced 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ what a nightmare 😂
Litrally just completed these stages last night lol coz I got my email saying my next parcel has left there ware house and will be with me in next few days 😊 those fingers were a nightmare for me as my eye sight is terrible and trying to to read the numbers on the little finger parts was a challenge 😂
Those fingers were so difficult. My eyes also are not great. I could barely see the springs let alone put them in the holes. Really not looking forward to the other hand. Happy building 🫣
@@mulch1973 I said same thing right after I was like ffs I’ve gotta do this again at some point I’m gonna try what you said and put the screw in spring first next time coz mine weren’t going all the way in and when the screw got a bite it like twisted the joints and sprung out 🤦🏻♂️ long story but yeah it was definitely tedious 😆😆😆
no I just deal with them direct. If you contact them they maybe able to help in relation to where you are. sorry I wish I could be more help. Happy hunting
