Our daughter came to visit and brought me a nice gift. It’s two sheets of die-cut steel where you punch out the pieces and assemble them together. Apparently, these have been around for at least eight years, but this was the first time I had heard of these. Anyone else build one (or more) of these?
These pieces are tiny. It’s nice to know that my daughter thinks I can actually put this together, but I wish she had bought an easier one for my first time. It’s only 4.8 inches long.
I have built two of the Metal Earth kits, and have two more to build some day. The first that I completed is their model of the Perseverance Mars rover and Ingenuity helicopter - here are a few photos and a short video. The other is the Apollo Lunar Module, for which I don’t have photos. The two kits I built were pretty hard to form (bend into shape) some of the parts and hard assemble. But they are pretty cool!
