I am so excited to share this kit with you! I was selected by Robotime to test this kit and provide a review. I have taken a few pictures to share with you all! I thoroughly enjoyed building this! This was definitely an awesome build all the way around. So very many tiny details. Do not think of this as another bookstore as it is so very much more!
I highly recommend this kit.
As a nurse, I am used to writing short and to the point so no poetry here with the description!
Check out the stairway leading to second floor and balcony!
Do you see the door in front! acts as a dust cover plus it just looks so awesome!
Can I say this was absolutely fabulous! Only a few very minor issues noted during the build. Obviously will make more sense if you are seeing instructions!
- The battery box is very loose and does not stay in place, falls down. The little latch just isn’t secure enough.
- Step 10 (Urn with lid on bottom of page 16) Piece A13 sticks up too far out of P15 so lid won’t go on. Even when pushing down so lid did not really close. I clipped off the top wood part and it was better but still too tall.
- Step 36, page 48. I did not think the arch fit across the top, but found it was my alignment. I adjusted and it fit perfectly.
- Steps 37 and 38, page 50. The roof pieces were a bit challenging. Pieces M22 were placed after the larger roof pieces secured. May be easier to place them before roof secured. Also, the front of roof, M5, did not secure well to that top tab. I had to reach in and glue down the tab (L8) and glue and hold the roof.
- anything else was due to an overexcited builder rushing ahead!
This was definitely an awesome build all the way around. I highly recommend this kit.
Being chosen by Robotime to test and review a kit is such a huge honor, and your excitement really shines through. I love how you emphasized that it’s so much more than just another bookstore. That detail alone makes me curious about all the unique touches inside.
