Hi all,
I received my Sound-Fitted example of GBRf 92 032 this morning. My first impressions with the Accurascale Class 92 were far from perfect.
Now, I don't know if it's just me but I have came across some issues with my model. Please review attachments.
1. On initial inspection, first issue I noticed were that one of the horns seemed to have been bent. Now, I would try and bend it back but I worry that If I do, I could completely snap it off.
2. At some point in the production line, it looks as though the model has been bashed on the lowest portion of the locomotive body. This has left a noticeable chip on the body.
3. The model suffers with light bleed. This occurs within the headlight lens' themselves and the middle yellow portion between the 2 headlight clusters.
4. I switched on the cab light to see that there is some sort of residue on one of the cab desks.
5. The model has a couple paint blemishes.
To some, you could think I'm being harsh or nitpicking but the thing is, when paying a premium price, you expect things to be perfect. To conclude, I'm not saying I dislike the model. I very much do like the Accurascale Class 92, I have just been unlucky with my specific example. The detail on this model is second to none and the performance and sound is flawless.
