I got my Tomcatters F/A-18E today nice diecast except all the fiddy bits were either to loose or to tight. one of the fuel tanks was tight and the other was loose. I managed to break the lugs off one of the inboard pylons that the fuel tank attaches to and one of the struts attached to the main landing gear broke because it wouldn't fit in the hole provided for it.landing gear doors also to loose or to tight. so after all that my Tomcatters F-18 is in flight bare naked. Hope my Diamondbacks and F-15E have better fitting parts. Gotta go find some Elmers glue and try to fix all this.

Sounds like you manhandled it ?? I got the gunslingers and while not going together perfectly, Everything fit as good as most and nothing is broke?
