Review: Great kit - Really nice model once it's done but probably not something you give as a gift to someone without the time to complete it. Sprue cutters with good quality, fine tweezers are a must and some skill in making models as the parts are delicate with the metal being only 0.2mm thick. The metal is good quality however but be aware there are parts that need bending that are only 7mm x 5mm! The final model is about 60mm high (including the antennae) and 60mm wide (from foot to foot). Instructions are okay but you need to read ahead to make sure you are bending the right way as some of the metal parts on the sheets are part-textured on one side for details (such as the hatch door). Because the metal is so thin you really don't want to bend it more than once or it will eventually snap. Parts fit fairly well but may need a bit of persuasion (keeping in mind you could easily crush the whole model in your hand). Definitely something you want to show off and If you have the patience and finesse, go for it.
Review: Some tricky bits. Lunar lander only, misleading picture. - I have built a few of these models now but this is the trickiest one I have come across so far. There are a lot more small parts and the construction of the side pods is awkward, you need three hands to attach them! An illuminated magnifying glass comes in handy with this Completed the first stage which is more complex, the landing stage should be simpler. The model does look great though and is cleverly executed. Update April 2020. Some 5 years after I built this I nearly bought it again as the picture on the listing shows it complete with the command module. To clarify, you will receive the lunar lander only!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long did it take to build?**
A: I didn’t actually time the build as I was doing it as the mood took me 
But I recon if you sat down with the intention to complete it probably 2 to 3 hours depending on the sharpness of your sight and dexterity. Step 1 is a cup of tea and a good read of the plans as some parts are easier to fit before bending others into shape.

**Q: Does it require any additional equipment?**
A: Hi. Not normally but people find tweezers and pincer nosed pliers quite handy.

**Q: Is it possible to stage the lander to its descent and ascent stages?**
A: I don't think it would be posable as it stands as all parts rely on others to provide strength to the completed structure and cover some of the open sections However, I am sure with a bit of ingenuity, patience and possibly by modifying bits from a second kit it may be feasible Have a look at www.fascinations.com/metalearth/aviation/apollo-lunar-module where you will find the assembly sheets.

**Q: That scale would this be compared to 4mm to 1ft as in oo gauge model railway. to make an apollo 11 moon diorama with film crew conspiracy - lol.**
A: I would say that it corresponds to 4mm to 1 foot so should fit in with OO gauge.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great kit

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some tricky bits. Lunar lander only, misleading picture.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice result - but diabolically tricky
*by A***L on 19 August 2017*

This is my third Metal Earth - I deliberately built two easier ones first, as this is the one I was really interested in and I wanted to make a good job of it. As expected, this was *by far* the most difficult - I'd go so far as to say that it pushes the limits of what this kind of construction is capable of. I had several places where parts were so difficult to align correctly that the constant wiggling needed to get them right caused other parts to separate along perforated fold lines (which they do really easily). Fortunately superglue sticks this stuff quite easily, though I did need internal joining repair plates in a couple of cases.. I strongly advise studying the 360 view on the website to be absolutely clear what the correct angle of the various folds is, as this is not always clear from the instructions, and the ascent stage in particular is a diabolically complex 3D shape - there are a *lot* of odd angles ! Unless you really want this specific model, I think I'd recommend you choose something else (the Apache is good)
