Started assembling some of the super structures. The sprue gates on the parts are really big and are not helping.

Got more of the front super structure built. Also built the big guns. I'll never complain about small parts again after this.

Unfortunately that's Dragon. Not bad detail but huge sprue gates.
Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.

That's typical Dragon Instructions
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
