Review: MODEL KIT, not a toy (as such....) - This is a kit, needing glue, time, patience, possibly paint, and maybe even some skill. Numerous small parts, and probably an attractive nuisance for the cat once completed. Clippers in addition to the usual xacto knife will save tears in removing several delicate parts from the sprues. I have not completed assembly and paint, but what I have done so far has yielded no unpleasantness. The kit is almost without flash, no sinkholes or defect in the parts, and the pieces have a very good surface finish. The model is well designed with excellent part fit, internal bracing, and has gone together very easily. The plastic is poured in three different solid colors and one sprue of yellow-tinged clear. The skull & crossbones and optional bayonet/ramming blade are white, the galleon-esq stern brown, and the remainder in a dark green. This not only makes painting easier, but also means that modifying the model to a somewhat less piratical look is much less complicated than might otherwise be the case. (A few small guide holes to fill in, and/or fabricate & detail a new deck aft of the bridge tower.) There is a surprising amount of detail, and there is room for more if you get creative. There is a nicely printed water slide decal sheet, and no photo etched parts. If you want lighting, its doable but you might have to get a little creative. (Theres that word again...) The instructions are in several languages, and the assembly process clearly illustrated. (They might seem cluttered if you have not previously put a plastic kit together, but its really not as bad as might appear at first glance.) A single sheet color printed painting guide is provided, with multiple views and ironically is the same size as the completed model. I wonder if the photos of the completed model from Hasegawa was not actually painted despite the paint guide, but just dark washed and drybrushed for a finish; the color of the mouldings seems very close. I think my least favorite aspect of this kit is the stand. There is also a representation of the Galaxy Express 999 and its passenger cars, consistent with the stated 1:1500 scale (well, yes, its a ratio actually, but moving on) it is really tiny. Overall, I'm liking this kit, I am having fun with it, and its not a fight to put it together. (Airfix, I'm looking at you.) Hasegawa has the habit of making models that *want* to go together, and this one does not disappoint.
Review: Great product. Fussy details, but great finish. - Now this is only the second model i've ever built. The first model was One Piece Thousand Sunny. It came with stickers for all the "painted" parts, and I used those. For the Arcadia, as its my first real Skill Build, and paint project; i took my time. The decals were old, or just fussy, for no good reason. But i wanted to use them, as i did not have a 000 detail brush yet, I'm still building up my tool collection. A lot of the underbelly light "decals", came off, and i replaced with yellow acrylic paint with a toothpick. I added black wash to the panel lining (googled Gundam Panel Lining), and dry brushed some gloss silver in area's i felt would get scraped when doing his Iconic RAM attack. Around the nose, protruding panels, and wing edges. I didn't follow the paint guide, for the included Cosmowing Z miniatures; and one got destroyed. I google a close up of the original 70s variation artwork; and hand painted it with the tiny blue stripes. After everything was painted, weathered, and detailed; i hit it with a thick layer of Testors Dullcoat Lacquer spray; to seal everything. I spoke to a lot of modellers at the local store, they all suggested covering weathering and decals with finishing lacquer or varnish; to ensure they stay put. I used Testors Decal Set; during installation, as well. I feel this was my best work, so far. I had never painted, detailed, weathered, or top coated anything in my life. I was told to use a gloss top coat, for models based on metal vehicles; for a metallic shine. But i wanted my Arcadia to look worn, and scarred. So I used dull coat/matte finish spray. I noticed while it was drying, that acrylic paint and dull coat seems to make it have a cell shading color effect. Almost like a hand drawn animation would look. It was a pleasant and welcoming surprise. I also glued the Cosmo wing Z to the base arm, so it wouldn't get lost, or broken. Also added the sliver dry brush to the base itself, since it looks like a maintainence arm from Deathshadow Island. I hope my information, and images were helpful, despite my lack of experience. Perhaps to serve, at least, for inspirational ideas, to make your models your own.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Arcadia model kit by Hasegawa
*by T***N on September 19, 2013*

This definitely one of the best model kit I've done so far. The quality of the product is really good.Every little part folds into another perfeclty and holds so well that almost used no glue for the whole thing. Description and plan are pretty good and especially thoughtfull regarding some small practical details that other manufaturers usually forget. On top of that the delivery was well planned, the package arrived on time and well protected. One of my best deals.
