This is an awesome kit of Darth
Maul by the new company Endless
Enterprises who purchased the rights to Jiver Models. There really are
no kits of Maul. The only other options are the static Hasbro figure painter
and the horribly ugly deformed garage kit. This kit is beautifully detailed
and is easy to construct. Assembly was very simple and almost no flash needed
to be trimmed. The horns were difficult because they were so small, but
the smart people at Endless give you more than you need. I needed them all,
enough said. Painting was fun on the body. I used varying blacks for the
different parts. I used a flat black for the cloak, satin for the leather
parts and gloss for details on the belt. The face was a challenge due to
the complex tattoos of the Sith lord. There were no molded lines so you
must use reference pictures. I don't think the lines would come through
in the molding process, and it would probably look bad to have deep lines
in the guys face! The kit also comes with nice straight pieces of metal
rod for the lightsabers, and get this...they aren't warped! That's a nice
change from lesser quality garage companies. When I glued them on, I added
some extra glue around the base to make it seem like the blade is really
there and ignited. If you have any of the new Hasbro figures, you know what
I am talking about. Overall this kit was great, and I'm not just saying
that because I'm friends with the owner. It was a great project that you
could spend forever on, or just a rainy day on. I did it in one day! This
kit retails for $25 on the Endless
