Evening Guys & Gals,

I've just ordered a subscription for the RB7 build.

This will be my first model build on any type and I am very excited (will have to dial the excitement down to make it through the 2 year build process).

Hoping this will be the first of many.

Just a quick question, does anybody have an idea of what sort of weight the RB7 end out at?

I have a shelf in my lounge I'd love to store the RB7 on, but it can only take ~5kg. Will the RB7 be much above that? Will I need to play reinforcements?

Some serious fore-planning I accept, but I'm excited so want to plan and get set-up!

Looking foreward to sharing my experience and contributing to the community!

Cheers,

Steve BigGrin

BigGrin Hi Steve
Firstly welcome to the forum
As for the weight question there is no information available at the moment on the all up weight of the model but I would hazzard a guess at around 6/7 kilo's for the finished model with a display case, so maybe some beefing up will be needed.
Hope this helps
regards

On a similar note, are the display cases for the model included? or is it a separate charge?

thanks!
