>>11750860I don't use to build hardcore model kits, just the kind of easy stuff like Little Armory, Hasegawa furniture, or action figure kits where everything fits without glue and can stay unpainted. I got this Motocompo expecting it to be somewhat like that, a simple and cute kit, and it turns out it's a reissued, classic model kit from like forty years ago without any quality of life features and it's meant for display, not play.
Many pieces wouldn't connect and you are just expected to glue them in place, there's stuff you'd expect to be cast in convenient colors and it wasn't... I guess it may be normal for models.
I accidentally got the rear wheel locked because the pieces holding it had to be glued (I managed to assemble the front wheel and most importantly the steering in working condition), but to be fair to myself, when I watched some review/assembling videos they seemed to mostly ignore any theoretically moving features and glue bricked it all for a static display, which I guess it's what it was meant to be.
