FIRST TIME? 
Description
This is an injection-plastic kit of a science-fiction/anime item.
The wait is over! Finally, FINALLY, someone has released an injection-molded kit of that much-yearned-after flying car of the future, the Spinner! And we're glad to see it's coming from Fujimi, one of the finest model manufacturers in the world. The kit features great and accurate detail, and can be posed in either "car mode" or "flying mode." Molded in white with clear parts (not the blue and black shown in the test shots here). The police lights on top are molded in red and blue (two more are provided as optional clear parts, with instructions to paint them clear orange). The decal sheet by Cartograf is quite extensive and seems to include all the screen-correct markings you'd expect to see on a "real" Spinner (POLICE 995, 44, etc)...the "generic" markings shown in the box art are NOT included with the kit. Also includes three photo-etched metal "Spinner" logos that go on the car. Looks like they've got it covered!
Sci-fi modelers, rejoice!

Assembly Guide
Skill Level 3:
Basic Skills Required
Kits rated as skill level 3 are traditional model kits that require all basic modeling skills to complete. This includes cutting parts from runners and trimming or sanding them prior to use, assembling them with cement, and the use of paint to complete them.
To properly complete a level 3 kit, you should have at least a basic set of modeling supplies, including plastic nippers, a hobby knife, files and/or sandpaper, plastic cement, instant (cyanoacrylate) cement (for resin, soft-vinyl or metal parts), painting supplies including brushes, paint, thinner and masking tape, tweezers and possibly decal softener for applying decals to difficult areas.
Kits in this class are not suitable for small children unless there is complete parental supervision. Adults who have never before completed a plastic model kit may want to read one of the many excellent modeling guides available at most hobby shops before trying to build one of these kits.
Skill level 3 kits include a very large portion of our catalog. Most traditional plastic model kits fall into this category.
Cement Required
This item requries the use of cement (glue) to complete. For injection-plastic kits, use the weld-type clear cement specifically designed for use on styrene plastic. For some smaller parts, you may wish to use instant type (cyanoacrylate) glue. For resin, white metal, soft vinyl and photo-etched materials, the use of instant type cement is strongly recommended.
A SAFETY NOTE ABOUT INSTANT CEMENT
Parents and all modelers should note that instant cement (cyanoacrylate) bonds skin instantly. While this in itself is not harmful, forcibly attempting to pull the skin apart can tear the skin and cause injury. If you or your child happens to inadvertenly glue themselves with instant cement, don't pull, but use remover for instant cement, or nail polish remover to dissolve the bond instead.
Painting Required
This model kit or accessory must be painted in order to achieve a realistic appearance.
While there are slight differences depending on the country you live in, there are generally three types of paint available for modeling: Acrylic, Enamel and Lacquer. Their characteristics are described below.
