Awesome model!
I'll admit I was a little anxious about ordering from Mecrob. Would the kit be as good as described? Would I actually be able to build it? Would it even arrive? Well, I'll never be anxious again. Minerva's Mercy arrived in the stated time (around 2 weeks, perfectly acceptable) and was beautifully packaged and presented. The instructions were pretty clear and easy to follow. There were a couple of ambiguities but they resolved themselves as the build progressed. There were no missing parts and, in fact, plenty of spares should anything break (nothing did). Including decent tools was a boon. All I had to add was a couple of pairs of tweezers - try screwing on a 2mm nut with fumbling, slightly shaky sausage fingers :-D It took me about 3 days to build as I've never attempted anything like this before (and I'm old and shake a bit) and I have to say I enjoyed every moment. The end result is fantastic, absolutely awesome. I won't hesitate to buy another model as soon as funds allow. Thank you, Mecrob, for being true to your description of this fantastic kit.
