Actually, it isnt that much of an exxageration about the 1/48. The big RMS missiles are wicked loose and blow apart everytime you go to do anything drastic. They look great and I love them, but the big missiles and the missile pod of the booster are a pain. The micro missiles dont stay in very well, and the joint between booster and misisle silo is much looser than on teh beam cannon, so one good jerk and it goes flying, opens up, and blast everyhting in sight with little plastic missiles
And yet it is one of the coolest toys I ever bought....
