The team at jrdf is amazing I had a one off quality issue but these ladies and gentlemen took it upon themselves to make it right I would strongly recommend jrdf to anyone
the print quality wasn't quite what i had expected im sure mine may have been a one off event mine were incredibly brittle unfortunatly only one survived its support removal i've been building models for little over ten years frankly im pretty upset i was using the 1:500 to then later justify buying a larger model
The skill of JRDF's modelers really shine through with small models as even at this tiny scale the models don't feel like they're missing any of the iconic visual language of the Arrow. As always, JRDF manages to create lovely product boxes that also do a great job of securing the kit for travel and here they've more than managed that in what may also be the most compact kit I've seen from them so far.
I mention scale a lot in my reviews and this will be no exception. I did not realize how small of a fighter the Anvil Arrow is until I placed one of the models from this kit against one of the 1:500 Gladius I own. The difference is much more significant than I expected. Additionally, while it's technically longer and wider, I think the Pisces even beats the Anvil out on mass! None of this is directly related to just this kit but it continues to show how these models do a wonderful job of bringing a real sense of physicality to the ships of Star Citizen that I've experienced no where else.
I also want to address something I read in another review. Before I bought the kit I saw a review that mentioned that the model's wings were flimsy. While the wings on the models I received are thin, I assume by necessity to match the 1:500 scale, I had no issues while cutting away struts or mounting on the stand. While I would be worried if I dropped the model from a shelf, I don't think casually handling the model poses any risk of them bending or breaking off. These are diorama kits and don't seem to sacrifice accurate scale for extra structure like you might see on a tabletop mini. (Not that that's going to stop me from using them for exactly that myself.)
Overall, another great kit from JRDF that holds up to what I've come to expect from the company and that I can happily recommend!
Wing edges are very thin/brittle.
Otherwise decent quality.
