Ron Garcia
Super fast and easy build. Not many pieces. Only needed a small swipe of putty on one of the front fenders to body join. Took me a short three days to complete.

The individual track links were simple to put together. Of course I ended up with one side that was about a half a link off. I added another of the non teeth links and hid it under one of the road wheels. That made one side slightly more saggy, but I can live with that.

The PE is reasonable but bending the six handles is a lot easier with a PE bending tool. The tips are very small and short so having that side locked into place while bending it makes for a less frustrating experience.

This would make a good first kit for someone who has little to no experience with individual track links and PE. Recommended.
