I uploaded a video of mine as i got mine today. My model wing had popped out on one side too & i pushed it back in place just like yours. Yours seems to have the top camera mount area missing. So i was surprised to see that when i got mine.
Yeah, there is definitely custom charges, it varies from country right. For my country, they had implemented a new rate, and its being comply by certain online platforms like this as well, so the tax is included during the checkout.
Yeah, when I get it from the package, i saw Italian design and i was like why Italian design for a Porsche.. I‘m not sure why the package it like this, but the model is perfect, i just discarded the box away, for me the model should be perfect condition.
Dominic Lapointe quite fragile, can be used as running models, good for displays only. Probably you can tilt the wheel to the left or right and place it in a display case. :)
+ChooChooTrain02 the one in the video is a old modelkit.. it was all painted about 90%, i just had to paint the disk and the calipers and the turn signals.. the prepainted model that comes out recently are 100% painted, you just have to assemble it with glue.
I'm glad to see somebody trying one of these Aoshima pre-painted cars as his first plastic model! I've often seen these kits and wondered if they are good for first-time builders.
+stevethefishdotnet they are great kit to build, the best kit i got so far is the nissan GTR r35 Pre-painted, the details are very precise and all the parts are painted, so you just need the glue, cutter and the Mr Mark Setter ( Mr. Hobby )
