There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
After about a week, I disassembled it for storage. When we decided to build it again, I learned that my husband tossed the instruction manual and couldn't find a copy anywhere online, so we had to build it from memory, which wasn't too bad. The unfortunate thing is that some of the little black connector parts had gotten weak and broken so they weren't holding things together well like the wheels with the axis. Also, the puzzle-like pieces also became a bit loose, so the wings don't hold up straight but sag and bend downwards. The airplane can't be touched without pretty much falling apart now, which is a bummer.
I'll digress. Hopefully I'm wrong and this is a defective one off. But I doubt it. Don't buy this product. Give kiwi crate a try.
