BANDAIHobby - Pokémon - Charizard & Dragonite, Bandai Spirits Pokémon Model Kit

He came much sooner than I thought he would! He was very easy to build, I could figure out a lot of it without reading the instructions. He was also bigger than I expected him to be! Very fun and silly little guy. He looks great!I think he's very much worth his price! :]

I'm actually very surprised on the quality of the pieces. I assembled this in less than 20 minutes and that's really because I was somewhat distracted. Honestly this was quite enjoyable and easy to build and require little to no force at all. The eyes are the only stickers you have to place, I recommend using tweezers to be precise.I was doubtful but this experience has me wanting to buy other models.

Nice colors, great hand feel, like, it's built well for the product. My son enjoys it and it's not gotten broken after many times being played with, launched across the house, skate board fun etc... also the price is great for the product you get. Kids will most definitely enjoy! That's all that really matters? Right?

I love how easy everything goes together! A few parts are a tad particular but nothing a little wiggle or two can't fix. The instructions are easy to follow. I like how it's not too big and feels approachable for those new to model building. Very cute when assembled and not flimsy. Only complaint is I managed to loose the stickers ment to be the eye shines and had to substitute with a bit of white paint. Those stickers are tiny so you should be careful when sticking them on!

Not a model guy traditionally but I'm a big fan of Rayquaza and the figure looked cool so I went for it. Took a long time to get here but I'm happy with the finished product.Assembly time: 60 minutes (ish). I'm an adult so a kid assembling this might take longer).Gonna do a pros and cons:Pros:-Good size, probably around a foot in length.-Easy to build. No paint, tools, or glue needed. Everything snaps together outside of 3 small stickers.-Looks good. It's a plastic model for a budget price so you're not getting some $300 statue. It's a plastic model and a pretty good looking one at that. Looks good on display.-Easy to follow instructions, generally.Cons:-Some small bumps in the plastic where the pieces snap off of the sheet. I followed the instructions and didn't rip pieces off too hard. Not a problem when it's on display, but close up you can see it if you look for it.-It poses okay, but not great. I tried to press pieces in the best I could. Getting the battle pose right (the pose Rayquaza usually has in the official Pokemon artwork) was such a pain I went with the included cloud stand.It's actually a pretty zen time if you aren't traditionally a model person but you want an accessible model building experience.I'm guessing a challenge isn't the main reason to want a model kit, but if you are looking for that a seasoned model builder likely won't have any trouble with thisI could have went with 4 stars here but I went with 5 because I think the coolness factor of building a model Rayquaza, and the fun I had building it, brought it over the top.

This is a great figurine you can assemble step by step by following the guide but out of all the pokemon figures similar to this, it's very strange.For starters, it has the longest how to assemble guide out of all of the other figurines including rayquaza despite that figure having more parts than this one.It's instructions go front and back for less steps than the other more complex figures making it very disorganized.But the worst issue is involving it's eyes. Unlike other pokemon figures for some reason, this is the only one that gets two different sets of sticker eyes.I already do not like the sticker eyes with these figures due to it is hard to get exactly on the spot you need without having a precise and steady hand.But this one is the worst one with it as it will more likely crumble due to how the face curves.But main issue is removing it after you put the head together if you want to change the eyes because once her hair clips together you can't get it undone easily at all.It is like cracking open a walnut with your barehands trying to get it off.If you use any tool, without a shadow of a doubt, you will scratch or dent the figure.That is how badly it sticks together, which is horrible because you need to undo the hair that you can put on her other set of eyes.They should have just made two different face sculpts with eyes already painted on and have it like a regular anime figurines do that clips onto the face.This figure is meant to be more customizable than the others yet it is the hardest to do so with despite being made obviously for that purpose.I love the figurine but I can't in good conscious say it achieved the goal of being more changeable than the other figurines.The rest is amazing but that part was just not thought out well.

These are adorable! I had fun putting them together. I had planned to put them together with my 6 year old niece, but I think this kit would be too advanced.You only get one shot with the stickers, and with snapping a lot of the pieces together. I recommend very lightly applying the stickers so that if you don’t align them right, you can reapply. Definitely take your time with the tiny pieces. If you forget a piece, especially a tiny inner piece, you cannot undo many of the steps. Charizard’s eye stickers are so tiny, that I think most adults might want to use tweezers to apply them.Overall, this kit was awesome! I love that you wind up with action figures instead of statues. I liked it so much that I bought two more as gifts! I would still say the kit is a little overpriced, but all other sellers are charging more, some a LOT more! This kit IS awesome, but not that awesome!

Pretty easy and straight forward process. Very happy with the outcome. She rests proudly at my card corner.
