Thanks, Ronald! We’re so glad you enjoyed the Plasma Spider model. Thank you for sharing your experience with us!
Putting it together was challenging at times but it made it more pleasing at the end. It looks beautiful and badass at the same time and catches attention of anyone who see it in the room. The instructions were clear, and I like that the packaging which contained lots of spare parts. I couldn’t avoid loosing few screws during assembly. Overall, it was a nice activity that stretched over a couple of days and the spider fits well in the home decor.

Thanks, Jim! We’re glad you enjoyed the challenge and the finished result. It’s a detailed build, which makes the final spider especially satisfying.
Had to knock out a star due to the arbitrary way certain steps were. More specifically steps 28 to 30 which required you to put completed pieces all on one long screw and fixate a nut at the end through a tight entrance. A simple solution would be to have a half but screw in to fasten half of the parts to make it easier.
The legs were the same issue, I cut my finger trying to work around it. Overall, that was a fun experience
Store owner replied:
Thanks, Giovi! We’re glad you enjoyed the model overall, and we appreciate the feedback about the instructions. Clearer assembly guidance is important, and your comments are helpful.
This one was tuff towards the end but very rewarding to see it put together. Love everything about it
Store owner replied:
Thanks, James! We’re glad you liked the finished model, and we appreciate the detailed note about the hardware and assembly. Feedback like this helps us provide better guidance and support.
Building it was really fun. Organizing the pieces, attention to small details. What I didn't like was how loose things were by the end of it. With no way of tightening things up especially in the late stages of the build. My plasma ball is a little messed up, you have to wiggle the wire to get it to work properly and the eyes do not light up on mine. I've taken the batteries put, flipped them but nothing worked. The end result shown looks floppy and weak. Adjustments are needed. The instructions were simple enough to follow, however specifically step 17 could be a little more clear on the angle of the pieces. All in all it was fun to build. Just wish it would have turned out better. Also, I recommend using a silicon mat while building. Helps keep the pieces from going too far if you drop something, and you will, no matter how careful you are lol.
Store owner replied:

The process itself was nothing short of captivating. From the sleek design that resonated with a sense of sci-fi wonder to the intricate details that demanded precision, every step was a testament to the craftsmanship behind this building toy. As I meticulously connected each component, I felt a surge of accomplishment with every piece that fell into place.
Upon completing the assembly, the sense of achievement was truly unparalleled. Witnessing the Cyberpunk Plasma Ball Spider come to life before my eyes was a moment of pure satisfaction. The glowing plasma ball, the intricate spider-like structure—it all culminated in a masterpiece that exceeded my expectations.

Cool ontwerp, foto's waren niet allemaal even duidelijk maar na goed bekijken kwam ik er toch wel uit. De spin staat heel mooi bij mijn verzameling metalen objecten.
Store owner replied:
Thanks, Sandy! We hope you have a great time finishing the build. We’d love for the Plasma Spider to become one of your favorite display pieces.
Great build but on the photo the mouth is lower than on product and struggled to get the eyes to sit right when building the face, also instructions doesn’t say how tight to do things. Other than that it’s amazing and would highly recommend

I just started with the first steps to make the Cyberpunk Plasma Ball Spider, so I cannot share much yet. But I am excited to work on it!:)
The shipment was pretty fast and all the parts are there, neatly packed. So five stars for that part.
I will share a picture of the spider when I am finished!
