Land Rover

I've had this in my stash for awhile and finally decided to build it. It's a kit I recommend not trying unless you are near pro level. It's not that it's a hard build, but because there are a lot of pieces and the directions are not that great. There were parts covering my entire kitchen table. I was lucky that Revell of Germany has full color instruction sheets for their kits; so the coloring is correct. However, you will be turning back and forth in the instruction sheet trying to figure out what to do as it has a couple versions to make and you have to skip ahead and back in building the kit. It will also tell you to drill holes in certain places and it just gets crazy. Spoiler alert Germans; not everyone has a small drill! Why couldn't you, I don't know, just pre-drill the holes in the kit at the factory? Yeah, I get that there's a LH and RH drive versions, but you could have at least done it for the roof and mirrors or something. It's not a fun build, and I probably will never tackle this kit again.
