Hey everybody,
So I got my hands on Kallus2 and azeral over the weekend and I was pleasantly surprised with how well/easy those models went together. Honestly, it was fun again to build the models. Is anyone else having a great time building Kallus 2 and azeral?

I couldn't for the life of me get Kallus' front right centaur leg to stay on and had to end up pinning it, but Azreal went together like a dream.

I love to hear that. I decided to not buy either of them dreading they will be nightmare to assemble.

The pro : - easy to assemble. - the mix of platics & metal means it's easier to pin all pieces... at least on the plastic half. - Azraek was easy to fully magnetize. I made it so that I can remove the wings, the hand with the spear, and the spears in the back. It was quite easy. All the joints are big enough to use d3x2mm magnets, that hold the pieces together pretty well. The cons : - the mold on Kallus body was offset by nearly 3mm in my case. - the mold marks on every piece of Azrael were really important. - the wings of Azrael were very thin, almost transparent - and they bend really easily, but not in a very reassuring way... Still the same problems with PP's resin  |

Still the same problems with PP's resin Azrael's wings are definitely super bendy, transport might be tough (I def should've magnetized them). That sucks that your mold lines were so much more prevalent, I didn't have any bad ones on either of them, just the sprue bits that needed clipped off and shaved flat. I was actually pretty impressed with it. |

Just got Azrael out of the mailbox yesterday. Wings are transparent in places but assembly was the best winged model by far. I was pretty happy with him.
Complaint - sprue like bits on very flimsy wing tips. Dared not cut them off clean with an xacto so had to use clippers and that scars the plastic annoyingly. Worse though was the two on his tail. They tore out material when i cut them off with clippers. Or there were bubbles in the mold around those points. I had to fill it in and smooth it back out. Made me a bit mad as I don't think that should have happened.
