fujimi 1/12 R32 GTR

hi all

has any one done a 1/12 r32 gtr by fujimi before?
has any one had the same problems with theirs?

mine r:

- The tiny screws shred the plastic, making the screws useless ( an utter bitch for test fitting parts on this model )
- The doors r openable on this kit, BUT they don't close properly, the gaps around the door r uneven, and the clips that hold them closed r way too long, and they bend every time u open the doors!
- this kit also has the posable front wheels viz the steering wheels, similar to that of die cast models. Looks like fujimi did a real half ass job in this area.
- the bonnet is also openable, and it does not sit properly between the front guards

for such an expensive kit, it does look very nice, and has a nice engine bay and the kit is easy 2 paint, but fujimi have done a real shitty job on quality control on this kit. I wish tamiya did their gtr in this scale.
