The AMT Cosmic Charger actually builds up nice and has two blower options. I chose the front mounted blower option. Paint is a combination of Tamiya and Wal Mart lacquer nail polish. I started with the kit decals and ended up getting 4 more sets from AMT customer service. They are the most brittle I've ever used. A ton of solvent and a blow drier to get them to conform. Not perfect but I'm happy just to have gotten them on.

Assemble, paint and encase the chassis in the body. Assemble and do the body work on the body than you stuff it full of wet tissue masks and paint the body. Than you figure how to fit the rear tires into a small slot.

and than the front tires into an even smaller slot.All while wondering if it is worth losing sanity over.
