Tough to beat a Merlin. Excellent looking build and the magnets? Too cool.

Almost too snug Jeff, the kit is engineered to such tight tolerances that a coat of primer and two coats of colour is enough to create some fit issues.

I've built kits like that. Hard to believe that that thin layer of paint/primer would make a difference but sometime it does.
