Good morning everyone.

I was horribly productive last night. First I turned this:

into this

(Blue Brixx Cop Car)

and then I build the KV-2

I really like the tiny tonk and I’m not sure I want to convert it to something orky. What really blew my mind was the build quality in both cases. Blue Brixx is *horrible* compared to LEGO. I’ve never had bricks with flash on them. It’s really bad. They do work but at times I had to scrape flash of. But the KV-2, cheap as the kit was, was flawless. Zero flash, not a single mould line and only sprue connection points needed cleaning up. The wheel have rubber bearings and the tolerances and gaps are so small to put some Gundam kits to shame. There is a reason I could finish it in 60 minutes.

If the rest of the models that company makes are of similar quality then hand me some more. (MENG, need to look them up in more detail)

Edit: looked them up. A model builders wet dream (and a website programmers nightmare) They even to Neon Genesis Evangalion as full pose-able model.
