please keep ONLY discussion about the Magazine in here and NOT discussing about your other F1 collection in this thread...
theres already an existing F1 thread to show off your other F1 collection.... i will remove those unrelated to the "Build Your Own McLaren" Magazine talks after this thanks |

QUOTE(SHINS ALASTOR @ Oct 9 2011, 08:31 PM) Just got my first issue 1- one month they send 4 issues in one go - they will send it to you within that month...either early middle or end...depends  Anyway, theres few question from a newbies to this like me : 1. If I subscribed and pay by credit card, will they send 1 issue per issue or you gona wait they send in few issue together with your freebies? Anyone had tried this? 2. Which one is the best way to subscribe? By the form provided or any online way? 3. Anyone had spotted Issue 3 on local bookstore?  also sometimes you got your issues more faster than at shop... 2- form or call them 3- still issue 2 anyway...i been subscribing this kind of mag from allscript for few times now...build the titanic, build the solar system...and so far they never stop the issues in the middle, it always complete |

QUOTE(Aeon_Clock @ Oct 18 2011, 10:56 AM) yes, I got the same email. they do replace 1 to 1 if your magazine arrive with missing parts or damage...provide you send back the problem issue back to themanyway guys, please calm down. They did request 28 days to process which I am sure we can accept. And the thing about waiting for hat is most likely true as I got the same excuse...and that was before I made payment. I don't mind getting them through subscription since I don't have to worry about bookstores having no stock, stock coming in late, they don't sell it in this bookshop, etc. Just have to worry about condition of magazine & car parts when it arrives. But even if its damaged, Zurina did mention that we can request for a 1-to-1 change. So its not a problem. VincC454 has been a customer of them for Titanic and the planetary magazine and he doesn't have any complaints...and we all know how big his Titanic are  one thing about sub these magazine with allscript is that you guys need to be patient...first delivery especially those are new customer are always slow...give them some times...your magazine will surely arrive QUOTE(sunnyboy @ Oct 18 2011, 11:07 AM) I gave them my cc number through phone moon orbitor can still find in local bookstore...i think kino still sell from 3rd issuesAdded on October 18, 2011, 11:21 am the moon sun orbitor, i cant find info in their website... want to built that 1 leh.... yes their website dont have this magazine...but if you contact them...they can sub for you |

just follow the tips from the magazine...its the proper ways alr
super glue never damage the model paint but leave those white residue if applied too much (follow the tips then you be fine) cement/tamiya cement do damage the paint or decal if you not careful the best tips is to applied these glue tiny bit only...cement/super glue just need a tiny drop to make them stick together.

QUOTE(mfazlan @ Oct 28 2011, 04:50 PM) im use gundam/model kit cement. Not really strong but i think should be fine tamiya or mrhobby cement are the same...they both strip paint as they are thinner base they are not strong for metal or wood...but they do strong on plastic for the metal parts, cement are not suitable for it as it wont really stick or even if it stick it wont last QUOTE(XP750 @ Oct 28 2011, 07:48 PM) erm..can we use super glue on all the parts? can actually even that the instruction ask you to use both my tamiya abs cement isn't really that strong, accidentally nudge it a bit and it will come off  super glue and cement if you read the instruction...metal parts they asked you to use super glue and plastic are asked to use cement im not trying to scared or sound so stress about this but try to have fun building it... im a modeller....i understand most of these glues, paints and thinners...if you be careful, follow the instruction and tips from the book and never over applied the glues...then you should be fine.... |

no...
if they bundle all up like that means they bundle all free gift together.... if they bundle means they delayed in sending your magazine on time so most of the time they will send all your free gift according to your issues number |

QUOTE(satriakid @ Nov 5 2011, 10:44 PM) And, with some superglue bought at those cheap china stuff shop, it damaged part of it. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I ish no happy!  Damn superglue so powerful compared to the cement!  Owh well, least the tyre keeps me happy cause its so bouncy (squeeze super glue a bit on some paper and use toothpick to dap on the super glue and applied it to the kit surface) super glue is NOT the same as cement super glue are made for heavy duty while cement are for those plastic hobby |
