Metal Earth One World Trade Center Building 3D Metal Model Kit

This is eighth 3D laser cut model from Metal Works (Metal Marvels) I've purchased. It was the easiest model to assemble so far. If you don't have experience assembling small model I would recommend starting with this particular model. It has few parts and most of them are pretty big sized, so it is really easy to put them together. I would recommend next set of tools to make the process of assembling much smoother: - Needle nose pliers TEKTON 3511 8-Inch Long Nose Pliers - Small flat screwdriver (1/4" Bit) Flat Head Screwdriver - 1/4" Bit - 6" Shaft - Tweezers General Tools 415 Utility Tweezers - Some hard (metal) flat surface to make 90⁰ bends Also, sometimes instead of making 90⁰ bends, it is easier to grab a pin with nose pliers and make a twist it is really helpful especially when the party going to be covered. I have attached some pictures, so you can see how the process of assembling looks like. The model does not require any additional hardware or glue to finish. It is made with high quality materials and looks awesome. I really like how it's designed and manufactured. For example, when I was assembling London Bridge I misread the instruction and had to disassemble half of it and then put them back together. I didn't break anything while moving parts front and back - which is a really good sign of quality. I would recommend following every part of the instructions which included with every item. Instructions are very clear and easy to read, and sometimes if you miss-follow them you might need to redo some steps again. In conclusion, I would like to summarize everything I said before: great quality, design, instructions. No additional hardware required, but you might want to use some tools. A little experience required, but recommended for beginner. It is durable enough, so my cat couldn't destroy it :) It is very interesting and nice model. Definitely not a toy, but a great present for 13+ kids who interested in modeling. I will buy more models from this company for sure. Check out other models from this company on Amazon.

Do NOT buy! Too hard to put together.

First, let me get a disclaimer out: These are not simple sets (none really are). They're not something you can put together in 20 minutes (if you're a beginner) with nothing more than your fingers. You will make mistakes and you will break pieces. You should purchase two sets, at least. You should look up the finished models online for pictures and guides on how to assemble them. You should double-check every single piece and make sure you're bending or shaping them the right way. You should have at least the following tools: Flat pliers (set of two, long and short), flat tweezers, small wire cutters, a variety of pencils and small eyedropper bottles (for shaping rounded pieces), and a magnifying glass with a work light. Review: Very easy set to put together. It's just one metal piece that forms the entire tower, then a top with a few pieces, and a base. If you have experience, you can knock it out in 30 minutes, if you're new to the metal earth sets, this is a good one to start with.

a very nice model i have done about 5 of these metal earth kits.this one wasnt that hard except i had trouble with the small bottom square pieces becuase i folded around the tower before i put them on.to fix this you can bend the base pieces 90 degrees then place the square pieces on.the model has only 7 pieces so its not complicated at all.it does have nice detail on the finished model.so even if you just want to try one of these kits out to see if you like them this would be a good one to start with and if you just enjoy these model kits then this one does look very nice

This model is a good starting point if you are new to Metal Earth. There are very few models available for OWTC so I would buy this if you appreciate architecture or if you are new to Metal Earth but do not expect this to take you long or surprise you with any challenges.

This is an excellent beginner kit to this type of model. I have built a couple of these metal earth kits so far and I can't imagine it getting easier than this. The main body is all one piece and it is a good introduction to the types of bending and forming that is necessary in more advanced models. If you want to give these types of models a try, this is the one for you. As for the model itself, it is very nice looking and a decent size. It is not as intricate as other models but it looks like the building.

My grandson tore into this, never having done one before. It doesn’t snap apart easily, and really requires education or training on how to break apart the pieces to prevent injury from the sharp edges. He quickly lost interest when he couldn’t get the pieces apart easily. I tried, and failed, too.

These kits are terribly designed and the instructions are worse than IKEA's (incomplete pictures only). I bought several and I'm very sorry I did. Thought it would be fun and end up with a cool display. The pieces are tiny and the metal is so thin that it dents and even breaks easily. There is so much missing from the directions that every time I installed a piece I could see how I should have done it differently. Bending, straightening and rebending destroys the piece. Don't waste your time and money but, if you have to have this, buy two: one to learn how it should be done and one to do it correctly.

Très bien aucun problème suffit de lire la description du produit avant d'acheter

Great product, fab service

No issues

Mein erstes metal earth Puzzle. Es handelt sich um ein ziemlich einfaches Puzzle. Die Teile sind nicht zu klein und lassen sich mir einer entsprechenden Zange gut aus der Platte lösen und zusammensetzen.

Pues acabo de recibirlo y voy a descambiar lo, no se corresponde para nada, o me ha decepcionado personalmente, es ridículo, no vale el precio que tiene. No lo recomiendo.
