I kinda want to get a mega size, but I have no idea where I'd put it.

How's the build complexity?

Not bad at all; I'd say it's similar to a high grade. That said the manual is completely in Japanese and it sometimes tells you to do weird things like put polycaps directly on the runner and then stick that runner directly onto another runner. Never had a kit tell me to do that before!

Very nice! I completed my mega a while ago. Definitely worth it imo but I had a real paint with panel lining the thing. I felt like the panels were both too big and too shallow for any pour type or tamiya. Had to go through all the details using archival ink pens of varying size tips

The panel lining was indeed a pain. Since I painted the blue and red but didn't have a way of top-coating them I only panel-lined the white. I used gray Tamiya panel liner and I felt like it went okay, but jeez what effort! This whole thing took me ages.
