## Questions & Answers

**Q: At Target is cost $6.99 or $8.99 and why so much online?**
A: Sellers on Amazon typically charge more than most retailers for Bandai model kits.

**Q: Does it require any special tools to assemble it?**
A: No not at all. I clicked out the parts and assembled them with 0 hassle. The entry grades r exactly that. For entry level builders.

**Q: Does it come with a stand?**
A: It does NOT come with a  stand. I personally use Action Base 2 stands, which run between $10 and $13 usually.

**Q: Whats the A battery for?**
