Pretty complicated build for a rookie, but a lot of fun. The instructions and included stickers worked great. Wish I had read through the instructions with more detail before final configuration, so fare warning to beginner builders. I will be building another

Accurate model, good for its $20 cost, mid-quality overall.
As advertised, it's an accurate and simple to assemble model of the B-Wing, which is a gorgeous ship. The quality of the plastic pieces is middling; this is not as high quality of a model kit as the Bandai kits that are available for the X-Wing and Y-Wing. This is a good choice for your nephew's birthday or Christmas present, but its build quality will let you down if you're a model building/painting enthusiast. DO NOT BUY THIS without at least also buying some appropriate model glue. It's a snap together model, yes, but it will snap apart just as easily if it isn't glued. My nitpicking complaints are as follows: - Some of the plastic pieces aren't manufactured at a high enough degree of accuracy, meaning that sometimes a front and back piece will be very slightly mismatched leading to gaps. - The included stickers very poorly adhere to the plastic model. - Every piece of this model is completely white instead of any shade of gray, meaning this model will not remotely resemble the coloration on the box unless you paint it (as opposed to higher quality model kits which sometimes include certain pieces in different colors of plastic to give the completed model a basic color scheme even when unpainted.)

bad product, good customer service
This product is pretty much trash. It didn't fit together properly. I never made it past the first step in the instructions. This first step included 5 parts, 1 of which wouldn't fit with it's other part at all, and the overall component the first step is to build didn't fit together properly. No more MPC for me, I'll be sticking with Bandai all the way at this point. The second star is entirely for the customer service, as they did refund me without any significant hassle.

Not a bandai. But not bad for the price.
B wings are hard to find. So I saw this one for a good price. Only issue is some parts didn't line up well. Some parts had mold flashing. The gaps. I do plan to disassemble and paint. And glue*

Not worth the price
Hmmm. First of all, this is not a review of the seller whose service was wonderful. It just is a poorly made model for the price point.
