I'm pretty proud of it. Some people would say "Why would you open a sealed Flagg?" Well because this was my all time favorite toy, the one Christmas present that brought me the most joy & I wanted to put it together perhaps to relive that feeling of being 9 years old again.
I took my time with it because I wanted it to be perfect. In hindsight I wish I would've used better flight deck stickers instead of the ones that came with toyhax's set. They don't pop like the originals. Someone else mentioned that to me on here & now I know what they meant. Still I'm glad just to have the toy again. |

Wow!!! That's awesome. What a great experience you must have had!!!
Are you going to give it the Joeburg treatment and put the storage base with coasters on it?

Nice!!!! I’m so, jealous and for the record I would have opened it too. My fear would have been yellowing on the plastic but yours looks mint! Congratulations.
That electrical outlet breaking up that wainscoting is killing me though.
