Review on 🏎️ UGears Plywood Roadster VM 01 Collectible: A Vision of Engineering Brilliance" by Joseph Campbell

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Pleasant; work details; bit of a disappointment

It was a lot of fun putting this 3D puzzle together. Roadster VM-01 is very well detailed. Doors and hood work. The front wheels are steerable and have independent suspension. Some improvements could be made to the way the wings are attached. Until they fall off, they don't stay firmly assembled. The tolerances associated with console shifting seem to be too tight. I have collected some of these 3D puzzles, so I know that wax is "my friend". Even with heavy use of wax, my console switch would get stuck in the neutral position inoperable. Likewise, the steering gear does not allow the front wheels to react to the steering wheel. In general, I liked the assembly, I recommend it.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Good but not great
