Hasegawa FA09 1/12 Figure Accessory Series Crane Game Plastic Model

This took a little time to build but it was doable. I did end up using some tape in a couple spots. It fits in perfectly with my 1:12 scale arcade. I was thrilled to find this available.

I was lucky to have just the front crack. You have to pull pieces away from the stencil holder and mine cracked the front window.. you will need a sand paper to sand down the edges for better fitting.

I loved the look of this mini display after seeing videos of it online and was happy to find it was available to buy on Amazon, it seemed like an easy kit that could be put together by hand so of course I bought it, and of course I expected it to be fragile so I did my best to take care in making it soon as it came out the box, however my main problem came when one of the blue polls for the front part of the crane snapped when I was trying to push it down into the hole it belonged in, this was pretty unfortunate as nether blue polls could properly be put into the pegs as it was a pretty tight fit and I didn’t want any further breakage after the fact, so I finished the kit with the two beams being awkwardly poking out and one had to be glued back to its peg The rest of the crane came together pretty well, some parts are a bit easy to miss so be extra sure to not throw away anything until your completely done.My only next secondary problem is that the acrylic “glass” panels for the window parts leave an awkward chunk poking out when you take them off the support beams; the instructions say to cut it off but… with what. I don’t really have anything lying around my bedroom to carefully saw off weird acrylic chunks, so I also ended up just not putting them on the cane because I couldn’t get them to fit otherwise.Overall pretty close to perfect, maybe it’s my fault for the kit inexperience but for people who want a really perfect crane do keep these things in mind.

This model is very cute once it's built.However, getting it built was, for me, incredibly frustrating. I had to file down some parts in order to make them fit into the appropriate connections, and the "plexiglass" side windows were impossible to make fit...I'm mildly ashamed to admit that I taped them in place because I just could not make it happen the way it seems like they were meant to fit. After building (I did not use glue, just snapped together the parts as directed), pieces will sometimes pop out of place, and I can't get some pieces to join closely the way they are supposed to (so there will be no gap between parts).I really like the way it looks, and I think it will look great in photos with my Figmas or Busou Shinkis, but ugh, this is a frustrating build. I only recommend it for the very patient.

Love the product but the door wont always stay closed on front for some reason. This is a full model kit not pre-built.

This was a cool product but I couldn't get it assembled properly. It ended up breaking.

If selling a product to people in America they could at least have instructions on how to use and how to put together in English but it was only in one foreign language only...When we buy or sell product in America we always include four or five different languages..I've had this for 6mo and still don't know how to put it together...Did not gifted it either, very cheap made product...

Easy kit if you take your time.
