Hello everyone, just ordered this subscription so I wanted to start a build post to share my experience, ask questions, and document my build. Should have first box in the mail late this week or by early next week, more to come then! I just started the Millennium Falcon build today and Sovereign of the Seas should be here tomorrow, so that will be starting all in parallel. Much to do, can't wait.

Great choices, should have enough to keep you busy.

Are you building your Mustang as is or planning any mods for it?

Right now planning to do as much detailing where I can to replicate all the finer details, which will help pass the time as I wait for the next kit. Should have the first month box in a couple days (seems they arrive 1 day after shipping notice which I'm expecting tomorrow, so Friday for the first month). Lot of my time will be spent on the Sovereign of the Seas while I accumulate more packs for this and my Millennium Falcon.

The Shelby has arrived (first sub showed up on Saturday). I haven't opened any of the first 4 part packs, but did a quick inspection and everything seems in order. I plan to do some research online this week and read some forums before diving into this one, see how much detail I really plan to do, thinking about going as authentic as possible to the read deal. In the meantime, I've got the Sovereign of the Seas to keep me busy.

Good to see the first set of Mustang parts have arrived.

I've seen a few different mods being done with this so far so it will be interesting to see what way you go with yours
