Wow! Thank you for the alert Mario. These kits look wonderful. I assume this is more of Peter's work? My wife and wallet are now sad! LOL

Yes, I think this is all Peter's work...
I noticed Legend is turning more to the 3D technology and it has been quite a while since they released any of their "old school" vehicle conversions and accessories.

Hi all,
If you have not experienced putting together Legend's latest 3D accessories, a word of caution for you.
I recently tried LF3D034, and I gave up and put it away for now b/c instruction was not clear on which parts go where. Plus, the resin blocks do not show the numbers. Too much guessing game for me.
Their casting quality is now as good as Live Resin's but LR is still superior in terms of providing better instruction guidance by showing better photos.
I hope that Legend Prod improves on this area.
My two cents.

If that's so, then God help you, as Live Resin's instructions sometimes leave me guessing which parts go where.

Honestly, the last figure I bought from Legend (SEAL with pirate gun), has large instruction sheet with very clear drawings and numbering-which part where belongs

Haha! OK, I guess it's a hit & miss for both companies. Never mind.

As always with Legend: "Wow!" indeed. If I ever live long enough to complete what I currently have (I'd be two hundred!) I would probably build vehicles that use anything that Legend makes!
