Troubleshooting

Model appears damaged upon arrival

Inspect the plastic-free packaging for any signs of damage. Given the 'rustic' intentional finish, differentiate between intentional design and actual shipping damage. If damage beyond the intended rustic look is present, contact the retailer.

Paint seems to be chipping excessively

Ensure the model is being handled gently and is not exposed to harsh conditions. A soft cloth should be used for dusting. If paint is flaking off in a way that seems unintentional, it may indicate a manufacturing defect, and you should contact the seller.

Model feels lighter than expected

The model is constructed from metal but its exact weight can vary. Compare with other similar-sized metal models if possible. If the weight is a significant concern and deviates drastically from expectations for a metal model of its size, contact the retailer.
