A fun and unique model kit
This is a nice and unique model kit, and a good value. This purchase was my first experience with Good Smile, and overall I'm very pleased. What can I say, I'm always looking for something unique, and this is that!
This is a construction kit (not pre-built and painted) and is more-or-less snap-together assembly and molded in 7 colors of plastic, so no paint is necessary to build a decent looking model, but paint will greatly improve the model. Note that the pictures of the kit on the box and on the internet are of a painted model.
The model is 1/150 scale, so very close to N-scale. Note that the railroad truck supplied are non-operational, and I plan to replace mine with N-scale replacements, which will fit on the "rails" molded into the display base. The only down side to this kit is that the details, such as hand rails, framework, etc. are on the heavy & thick side. And being a snap-together kit, it lacks the fine details of more complex kits.
I have no idea how this kit scales dimensionally with the prototype, but to me it looks acceptable, and it's more about having fun that counting rivets. If one wanted a more detailed and accurate model, this might be a good starting point.
